Done. However, I inverted the test to disable alsa if (DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS
!= linux), since it is enabled automatically when the alsa headers are
found. Then again, the test is useless, since the headers will not be
available on systems other than Linux.

I reverted the changes that I introduced in my previous commit.

I documented it in debian/rules because I believe this is the
appropriate place for source changes like this, i.e. that do not affect
copyright issues but only Debian packaging.

Done. I have found no API changes in the header files relative to 1.0.0.

Allright. I am looking forward to this.
