Ooops, nearly forgot that mail...
As noted in wiki page, there was an interface split, like:
"iSndSysSourceSoftware3D was split into iSndSysSource3D for the 3D stuff, and
iSndSysSourceSoftware for the software specific stuff."
And I guess that:
- iSndSysSource3D, iSndSysSource3DDirectionalSimple and
  iSndSysSource3DDirectional are totally new interfaces
- iSndSysSourceSoftware3D doesn't exist anymore and its methods have been spread
  in the new interfaces.

I didn't really study the changes, my note was just a warning about build errors
I got after trying to build CEL with the OpenAL branch (which were limited to
pcsound, though; will post them later if needed when I have an OpenAL branch
build again). And so far, I have no idea if it's possible to maintain
backward compatibility in such a case (but remember, I'm not a programmer...)
