It's really just a cut-paste job from the existing LINE support.
The current dxf plugin architecture isn't very efficient, especially if you
are loading large point clouds (LIDAR)
eg. it makes multiple lookups of the layer name for each vertex.
I don't know if I can improve this for the general case or if I have to add a
special large point cloud dxf reader."
It basically removes the static init() and exit() functions,and move them inside the observer class (the one that cleans everything up when the last media is unloaded).
It also add an extra check to clean up on exit if the QuickTime env is initialized, but no media is succesfully loaded / written (it might happens with streaming resources).
I tested it under WinXP with zero, one and multiple videos.
Stephan reads in copy: could you kindly check if everything runs smooth under OSX as well? Also, have you got a chance to test it with streaming media?

-I changed the SET of COLLADA_BOOST_INCLUDE_DIR to use findpath, so users may override this setting if they choose not to build against to precompiled boost libraries delivered with the Collada DOM.
-Changed daeRMaterials.cpp to prevent a compiler warning about a potentially uninitialized variable."
used but never restored to the decimal notation. That made OSG print messages
like the following after some notifications:

The vtf plugin wasn't working in Windows due to OS differences in the byte-packing of the header structure (on Windows, the big block read was causing a buffer overrun). I fixed this by reading the structure from the file field by field. It's now happy on both Linux and Windows."
1. Support for ambient occlusion maps.
2. A fix for the incorrect handling of normals on all geometries. The optimizer usually fixed this bug so it probably was not noticed very often.
3. A new option flag on the reader. "StrictTransparency"
// Process transparent and transparency settings according to a strict interpretation of the spec
// See https://collada.org/public_forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1210
otherwise
// Jump through various hoops to accomodate the multiplicity of different ways
// that various people have interpreted the specification
4. Handling of texures in the transparent channel. This is allowed provided that they are the same texture that is specified in the diffuse channel. Accomodating a different texture would require use of programmable pipeline functionality which I have tried to avoid.
5. Handling of <bind_vertex_input> elements.
