Just to explain my delay: I am having troubles in getting gdb to work on 
this platform.  gdb basically hangs on pulseaudio process with a message

 	Error while reading shared library symbols:
 	Cannot find new threads: capability not available.

I am not exactly sure what is going on.  It could actually 
be that my problem is caused by some general instability with glibc or 
some other essential  system component.

I will keep you posted in I make any progress in this.

PS.  It seems to me that the version of pulseaudio is the 0.9.5 release + 
dome patches. I attach the head of the compilation to give you an 
impression what is built.  Please complain if you see anything weird.
