[Swfdec] swfdec new version

[Robert Knight]

Hello,

I encountered problem 1a) and 1c) as well.  Apparently the ALSA
compilation thing is a known problem with ALSA and certain compilation
flags.

To fix 1a) I put the following at the top of the
swfdec_playback_alsa.c header file.

/*
 * This fixes a build problem with ALSA
 * Solution found here:
 *  http://opensource.creative.com/pipermail/openal-devel/2006-May/004325.html
 */
#define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 199309

I just renamed the 'delete' function temporarily to something else to
make it compile.

Regards,
Robert.
