creating a project file for hugin shouldn't be too complicated I hope
The makefiles (particulary rules.mk) are very complicated. But normaly
you don't need to touch these.

When you create the project files for windows, the following
is the main idea behind the directory structure:
Basically there are several subdirs in src, each for a particular
"module". The Panorama and jhead subdirs contain stuff that is compiled
into a library while the hugin subdir contains the source that will be
compiled into the executable.
The include dir just contains includes for these "modules". It should
be suffiecnt to add that dir to the include path of the compiler in
order to compile the other files.

Probably that it xrc couldn't load some bitmap for the toolbar. All that
stuff is currently changing and I hope it'll work better in the future.

I'm working on that right now. I'm just creating better makefiles and
also a small configure script. (handwritten so far, but I might consider
using autoconf for that). The problem with xrc is that it is not
compiled automatically, but has to be specified when compiling
wxwindows. Hopefully most distributions provide it in their main
wxwin package or in a separate wxwin-contrib package (as debian does).
