I have attached a patch, against the trunk from 13:30 today, which consists of the following:
1. CMakeModules/FindOpenEXR.cmake: Look for libIlmThread and libIex as well. 2. src/osgPlugins/CMakeList.txt: Only include the exr subdirectory if both the OpenEXR and zip libraries were found. 3. src/osgPlugins/exr/CMakeLists.txt: Add ZIP_LIBRARY to TARGET_EXTERNAL_LIBRARIES."
The plug-in is a wrapper around open-exr (http://www.openexr.com) that consists of two projects, ilmbase-1.0.1 and openexr-1.6.1.
I have only tested it on windows XP 32 machine. So there might be some work making it work on other platforms.
The plug-in supports writing and reading EXR files. When writing it can use the data type GL_HALF_FLOAT_ARB(se ilmbase-1.0.1) and GL_FLOAT. When reading the data type always becomes GL_HALF_FLOAT_ARB. It supports textures with three and four channels.
When reading an exr file it automatically removes Alfa channel if it didn't store any information."

From Robert Osfield, started work on ported it to other platforms, but could fix some problems relating to error:
?Imf::OStream::OStream(const Imf::OStream&)? is private
I'm checking in now so that others can have a bash at completing the port.
