Crud. This is gonna be messy, if it can be done at all. Given that Fedora is 
at 0.109.2 already, we'd have a hard time talking the maintainer into using 
that build, so we'd be looking at a compat package or an ffado-jackd package 
or something along those lines. :\

For grins, I started poking at a local build of it (simply as jack) here. At 
the moment, its falling down like so:

[...]
gcc -shared  .libs/alsa_driver.o .libs/generic_hw.o .libs/memops.o 
.libs/hammerfall.o .libs/hdsp.o .libs/ice1712.o .libs/usx2y.o 
-Wl,--whole-archive ../alsa-midi/.libs/libalsamidi.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive  
-lasound -lm -lpthread -ldl  -m64 -mtune=generic -m64 -mtune=generic 
-Wl,-soname -Wl,jack_alsa.so -o .libs/jack_alsa.so
/usr/bin/ld: ../alsa-midi/.libs/libalsamidi.a(alsa_seqmidi.o): relocation 
R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared 
object; recompile with -fPIC
../alsa-midi/.libs/libalsamidi.a(alsa_seqmidi.o): could not read symbols: Bad 
value

Might be some requirements on an older ALSA as well, I dunno...
