Hi Bob,

That's indeed a problem I did not realize... And there is an another,
related problem, which is that with binary distributions, you have 
to either distribute to versions, one linked against jack and one not
linked against jack.

The ALSA plugin's are all compiled into the library. It would indeed be
nice if each plugin would be a seperate shared object. Maybe Jaroslav
has concrete objections against this? Anyway, it would represent quite
a bit of change to the code, which I suppose just before 0.9.0 final
is not the best moment.. 

Another solution would be not to link against jack, but use the dynamic
linker loader (dlopen, dlsym). This would require to link against libdl,
but I suppose that that is okay.

Maarten
