Using the portage provided API's will make others happier, I personally
don't happen to care so much as I don't work directly with ebuilds every
day. I was rather only trying to express to you that version symbols
really should only be enabled for glibc users.
How you act upon on media-sound/pulseaudio within Gentoo is up to you
alone. I've noticed maintainers seem to like when patches are provided
to them via https://bugs.gentoo.org Which seems reasonable as it's often
easier to understand the end result with a 5 line patch vs ~7-25 emails.
It may or may not be short sightedness of the upstream author in this
case to assume gnu libc by default. I'd guess probably any and all of
the bug reports he/she has received have been related to the gnu libc
userland so assuming versioned symbols might be a reasonable default
that {s,}he is used to.
Anyway I'm not going to be acting on the pkg in question as I've
personally never needed *audio* and embedded together. But initially we
can gather the following information within Gentoo about the the pkg.
