INSTALL.txt in the source only listed about half of the dependencies, so I
went ahead and added all of the dependencies I could find in
CMakeLists.txt. Let me know if I missed anything.

I also added a sentence about supported compilers (gcc for linux and
windows, clang on OS X). Pretty much verbatim from an email Wayne sent out
a few weeks ago.

 In source-tree-build are mostly unwanted, so make a subdir called "build" and
 change to it.
