This changes three things:
1) Most importantly: fixes an ugly complicated to track down segfault when
the PulseAudio client library is unloaded by libraries like libcanberra.
That's the patch "0024-Make-sure-libpulse-never-gets-unloaded.patch" which
inludes a more detailed explanation on what's going on. The fix is fairly
trivial (simply use -z nodelete for the linker to avoid that libpulse is
ever unloaded). Fixes bug #460666.
2) A fix for #469408. It's pretty trivial, too, but has some impact on 64
bit users that run 32 bit apps. That's 0023-make-shm-marker-architecture-
independant-patch-from.patch.
3) A fix for requiring the appropriate libspeex versions for building.
Pretty trivial too.
1, 2 are very important. 3 is pretty boring.
If you don't accept this build than people will get some segfaults and
asserts in some situations. And probably wine about that, because of lost
data and less fun.
I tested 1 and 2 to make sure that this fixes the problems. Of course, 1
is a fix for a race which is by its very nature not always reproducable
but I am confident I nailed it. For 3 I did the compile testing which
should be all that is necessary, right?
