[Openal] Status of OpenAL 1.1 on OS X

[Paul Ossenbruggen]

With Xcode 2.4 came OpenAL 1.1 headers. So we have a 1.1 library with  
1.1 headers. This is good.

Since the ALUT library was separated out with AL 1.1, it seems we  
need a new alut framework but it was not in the SDK that I could  
find. I have worked around the problem so I can build my existing  
code by adding the alut 1.0 header to my project's includes and  
adding a dummy al.h in that same folder but am hoping this is temporary.

#include <OpenAL/al.h>
#include <OpenAL/alc.h>

#if 0
  #include <OpenAL/alut.h>
#else
#include "alut.h" // <<-- put empty al.h file in the same folder as  
the 1.0 alut header (since it is included above).
#endif

Does anyone know if freealut will be forthcoming on mac os x as part  
of the OS?
