please don't. the videoKINECT plugin is the way to go.

that's mainly a problem with the current build-system of Gem.
on OSX it still defaults to using [pix_videoDarwin] rather than the new
plugin based approach.
you _should_ be able to force using plugins with something like
$ ./configure --with-video=no

apart from the fact that the "no" is quite weird (as you do want video,
you just don't want pix_videoDarwin), i think i also remember that this
for some reasons does not work (e.g. it is ignored), but i might be
mistaken here as well.

the configure definitely needs some rework to remove the forcing of some
defaults.

all in all, this is a minor issue compared to getting videoKINEXT running.
