	Yow.  I am not seeing this on Mandrake 7.1, and 9.1, as well as
slackware 8.0.  libaudio did go though it's ANSI facelift in 1.6a, but if
something got screwed up, I would think it would show up on one of my
systems...

	When you tried the 1.6a libs, did you build them yourself or were
they pre-packaged from someone... Also, can you get a stack trace of an
auinfo run when it cores?
