Make error in ao_alsa: too many arguments to function `snd_pcm_hw_params_get_buffer_size'

[dimaki@…]

A make of latest CVS Version fails due to the following error.
Make of 1.0pre6a quits with the same error.
1.0pre5try2-3.2.2 worked fine!

Sounds like bug#58 to me... I do not know why it worked with pre5 though...
Currently the best solution would be to disable ALSA, it is too broken (at the
