[Ipopt] Suitability of IPOPT for bundle adjustment problems in open source computer vision

Keir,

another option to consider is to build a small driver application
which links against IpOpt and is itself licensed under the EPL.  The
driver would accept optimization-related data from a file and output
the result to a file again.  The driver is called from the main bundle
adjustment program.

Not perfect, but a feasible way if the optimization problem needs to
be solved only a small number of times.
