Hi Nicolas,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.  I think none of the devs have 
noticed this problem because we aren't using KDE4_ENABLE_FINAL.  I infer that 
you are using this option from this line:

> /home/neoclust/kdeedu-3.91/build/kstars/kstars/htmesh/htmesh_final_cpp.cpp:

*_final_cpp.cpp files are created when enable-final is active.  

In any case, it seems that there are windows-only source code files that are 
ignored (by non-WIN machines) when enable-final is not used, but are included 
when enable-final is used.

I can't find the logic in the code that skips these windows-only files, so I 
don't know how to modify it to work with enable-final.  Hopefully, James will 
be able to enlighten us soon.

Devs, if you want to test this, just add "-DKDE$_ENABLE_FINAL=1" to your cmake 
line.

While waiting for the real fix, it should be possible to tell cmake not to use 
enable-final in kstars.  I'll try to find out how to do that today.

thanks again,
Jason
