Whoops :) I'll fix it.

Yeah, I was thinking about the embedded platforms, really. I guess any
major linux distribution has 0.10 now.

Yeah, I've left the comments to test various alternatives. I've found
the -fno-strict-aliasing on the makefile template to build gstreamer
plugins, but it seems it is not really needed (I fear a bit the gobject
alchemy).

Yeah, right. I think we should really think about doing this via
preferences. My idea is to setup some custom preferences at
build/install time, and just updating the api we use to get the
providers so that we don't need to touch all the code that for one
reason or another needs a provider. The only piece of code that needs to
be changed is then the preferences code itself. 

The problem here is when we want to add new sound providers, my
understanding is that we don't let users do that easily. For now, I
would keep it (time is running up), the gstreamer backend will not be
built by default anyway. But I really would like us to brainstorm on
that issue a bit, I can take care of it, just I want to be sure to do
things in the correct way (that is, something that maybe can be then
used in openjdk too).
