[Openal] FreeBSD and OpenAL

[Sven Panne]

I just had a look at the FreeBSD page, and it look like all tools are
available in sufficiently new versions. Some tools are available in
various versions, though, so the output of

   autoconf --version
   automake --version
   libtool --version

would be helpful. Furthermore a log of the output of autogen.sh and
configure plus config.log itself are always nice (if available), not
only in the FreeBSD case. I don't have access to any FreeBSD box, but
I'd like to keep the *BSD part of OpenAL alive, so any helping hands
here are highly welcome.

If you have access to e.g. a Linux box, you can check out the SVN stuff
there, run autogen.sh, configure and finally do a "make dist" to get a
*.tar.gz source distribution for the bleeding edge. This can then be
tested on FreeBSD if the autogen.sh stage doesn't work there. Of course
this should only be a temporary workaround.

Cheers,
   S.
