 I can't get it to compile on FreeBSD < 6.0, even using GCC 3.4.4.
 The code quality of this library is quite bad so I guess it will
 require even more patching to fix it.

 Well, maybe. But this is the de-facto version people are using and it's
 acctually the official version + alot of bugfixes only.
 Even companies providing BSP modules (Biometric Service Providers, ie
 biometric backends) are recommending the use of this version.
 Hopefully the BioAPI Consortium will release a better 2.0 version soon.
