Is it true that if you see an entry indicating that SETUP_PLUGIN has been called then that plugin should be placed into the solution for build? Or are there other factors that would cause a plugin not to be included within the solution? Where do I look in the build chain to determine whether or not the plugin has indeed been placed into the solution for build?

The OpenSceneGraph/src/osgPlugins/CMakeLists.txt contains all the
references to the plugins. The optional plugins are enclosed in if ()
blocks where the test is usually checking for the presense of a 3rd
party dependency that that plugin requires.

The Find scripts that locate the 3rd part plugins are invoked in the
the OpenSceneGraph/CMakeLists.txt, just look for Find*().
