To use different versions of portaudio, is only necessary
to link to it dynamically, not statically (as in the
mingw windows csound 5). Then it's just a matter of
changing the dynamic module files (DLLs in windows).
Not necessary to bother with anything else.

I know that a few changes that were introduced
early this year seemed to mess up the audio in windows.
I will definitely deal with this issue, as soon as I have
time,
if no one gets there first.

The version I have has audio output that is not too bad,
comparable to 4.23.
