Hmm, I really don't want to link to it statically, and I don't
necessarily want to make an extra package for alsa (it would be 2
packages actually, gtk and motif).

So I guess I'm outta luck here ;-)

No, seriously, couldn't there be a run time configure option to switch
between alsa and oss? I guess it's not so trivial, otherwise somebody
would probably have done that already...
