hi

ok, attached is esound-0.2.8.ebuild and esddsp.c.diff (which should go
in the files dir).

i had to patch esddsp because it needs RTLD_NEXT defined in #include
<dlfcn.h>.  only problem is, for it to get defined, __USE_GNU needs to
be defined.  but for some wierd reason even if defineing it in esddsp.d,
it does not get passed to #include <dlfcn.h> as being defined.  i am on
gcc-2.95.3-r5, if someone can trie with another version (gcc 3.01 ??),
it would be appreciated.

also there is problems with ALSA support, so i disabled it.  i dont use
ALSA so im assuming esd should work ok with ALSA OSS emolution ?!?
dont know what the problem is, but it seems the version of ALSA that
gentoo use dont have all the strucktures and functions esound-0.2.8
needs defined ... same with 0.2.7, so maybe we need to use a newer
version of ALSA (0.9 maybe ?).
