Hi,

If bio2jack is a library, it shouldn't be included in MPlayer directly 
IMHO, but instead configure should check for an installed version and 
enable the ao only when it's available (except if --enable or --disable 
is given, of course).
Otherwise we will always need a maintainer to keep the included version 
of bio2jack in sync with the sourceforge version. My experience is that 
this just won't work and sooner or later somebody will start hacking our 
version instead of patching the original on sourceforge.

Greetings,
