I am almost there now.  Just before supper I did manage to compile it
all, but some problems have crept back.  In principle all the
utilities now use linsndfile.  I have tested hetro and a little
others, but will finish the check later.  There are still some
differences between CVS and my files but I am working on them.

On a different note, am I alone is having noisy output from PortAudio?
My standard alias test is unusable with PA.

Hi John,

I noticed using device 0 yielded horrible noise, but using device 1 
sound was fine.  This was on a Fedora Core 1 linux setup.  Device 0 was 
set to /dev/dsp I think but the device said it had 16 channels.  This is 
in the last message here:

http://eartha.mills.edu:8000/guest/archives/CSOUND-DEV/log0402/msg00046.html

I'm not sure if this is the same problem or if using a different device 
number will "fix" the issues you are having in terms of getting to hear 
audio.  I'm suspect there's something odd going on in PortAudio v19 and 
that device 0 isn't really meant to be identified with 16 channels, but 
I'm not qualified to say.

Portaudio asserted there were two devices -- 0 and 1.  0 was noisy (and 16 
channels) while 1 just segfaulted, but was stereo.

I preferred the other alsa solution which was to use a device csound, 
defined in .asoundrc.  That was the Csound4 code anyway.

....still having problems getting in step.  I could build for a short 
while but now it is complaining, as I cannot follow all the changes that 
are not compatible.

I'm not sure if this is your problem, but when using portaudio with outc you 
have to fill all slots with an a-rate variable. Zero doesn't do the trick 
either.
