David,

I'm currently attempting to deprecate a number of older software stacks
in order to narrow down the maintenance burden of Cygwin.  As part of
dropping Qt/KDE 3 and 4, nas/libaudio could also be dropped, except
that libao still has a NAS backend enabled.

Given that, could you please rebuild libao w/o the NAS backend?  At the
same time, perhaps the ESD backend should be replaced by the Pulse
backend, since libesd is just a compat client for PulseAudio at this
point?  There are also a few patches which you'll want to include if
you haven't already:

Thanks,
