Awesome.. you guys are way too fast for me now. :D Every time I check  
my email there's 10 more commits :)

FWIW, I just did a clean checkout of Tiki the other day to use it as  
a utility lib for loading textures and such in a Cocoa app I was  
tinkering with. Compiles great out of the box on Xcode 2.2, no issues.

On that topic I've been developing some wrapper classes in Obj-C  
around some Tiki objects which are very nice to have around.  
Specifically I made a TikiTexture object that acts like a Cocoa  
object but wraps up a Tiki::GL::Texture using Obj-C++ (but Obj-C++  
isn't required to interface with it in any way, from the outside).  
You can then do stuff like:

TikiTexture * txr = [TikiTexture fromFile:@"foo.jpg"];
...
[txr select];

And it'll return an auto-released Obj-C object with that texture in  
it. The second line activates it in GL.

You guys interested in this sort of stuff? I can check it in  
somewhere if so.
