Ok, though the changes are not in hugin, but in the pano12 library.
The new library seems to be ok with recent versions of hugin and
very fast too - I thought there was something wrong initially.

I've built this version of panorama-tools using the sourceforge CVS
with Rik's patch applied, so please report any flakeyness:

Note that this package just includes the pano12 library and
PTOptimizer; if you want PTStitcher and all the other binary-only
stuff, then you need to get the panorama-tools-nonfree package as
well:

Current hugin RPMs for fedora require this panorama-tools-nonfree
package.  This dependency is actually unnecessary, I'll remove it
when I next put together a working hugin package (current hugin CVS
segfaults on me, so this hasn't been updated for a month or so).

Just a reminder that there are now RPMs for a complete open-source
panorama stitching toolchain:

  autopano-sift - automatic feature-matching pre-processor
  hugin - gui including the nona stitcher
  panorama-tools - pano12 library and PTOptimizer
  enblend - image blending with multiresolution splines
