FLTK-1.1.7 is required because some widgets that are only in this
version (or newer) are used. In fact, SConstruct even checks for
the availability of the new widgets. I think I will create a new
source tarball today so that any changes since the last one can be
tested on the Mac.

The frontend is intended to work with the widget opcodes, and it does
on Linux and Win32. However, some changes related to this, as well as
thread locks on the Mac, have been made since the source tarball was
released. So, it is possible that the graphs and widgets would work now
with the latest sources. Ans, as always, FLTK must be compiled as a
shared library and with threads enabled.
