Most of this was answered in my other email, except a few comments:

Libao is supported under fink and macports. I will have to investigate but
I'm not sure what back end they use on the apple platform. I agree in
unifying as much as we can the sound systems into one interface (The
exception will likely be Windows - just a guess).

Its a bit messy once sent through email. But its not a duplication (Yes it
looks odd, but that's what the  compiler needs to get around a lazy binding
anomaly on Leopard. There is a SPACE after -dylib_file and no spaces up
until -framework.

Yes, in fact this was the addition I was going to make after initial check
in. I wanted to get the changes out to Achim.

My intent is to add the extra parameters to LD_FLAGS with APPLE OS/X builds
with Board3d. The main reason I didn't check it in was that I wanted to test
how those parameters affect Tiger 10.4 builds. I usually like to test things
out that I know might be a problem before a checkin but didn't have the time
yesterday. The linker problem didn't originally exist on 10.4 and became a
problem on 10.5.
