I don't think that's the case.  The tri-collider extension just adds a few
additional C-style functions to the ODE API.  One of them requires a
struct* in the argument list, but the struct is just three floats, with no
member functions or anything C++ish.

Have a look at dTriList.h from the tri-collide contrib, and you'll see
what I mean.  Juice doesn't use the callbacks, so that leaves just two
functions to worry about: dCreateTriList and dGeomTriListBuild.

If you need a copy of ODE with the triangle collider built in:

This is with dSINGLE defined, and with the dStepFast solver.
