I sent him the patch, but he didn't show much interest. He is using 
"triangle", which he thinks is more robust than Qhull, and would have 
to maintain code he is not familiar with.

hmm, I was thinking to put the new libraries object files into 
libplplot, to easy the linking of users apps. But if we install libnn 
and libcsa the user can use the libraries independently. What do you 
think about this?
