CubeMX, using LwIP with an RTOS that isn't FreeRTOS?

Assume for a moment that I want to use LwIP with an RTOS, I have to set NO_SYS = 0. But you can't do that unless you enable FreeRTOS.

But I want to use a different RTOS, not FreeRTOS.

Enable FreeRTOS and you get to set NO_SYS = 0, but you also get the FreeRTOS cruft.

Is there any way to get around this?

I suppose I will just avoid LwIP from within CubeMX and pull it down from the LwIP repo...

Everyone wants more and more features and customization. As that goes on, the dependencies and complexity of the tool internals rises exponentially. Eventually it will collapse into it's own complexity. If you look carefully, it is already starting - the amount of issues is rising.
