The first step that would be appreciated would be a way to turn of the check
for ALSA in configure.  Due to the way I am building this (via macports) I
have to manually remove the ALSA check in configure.ac then run autoconf and
then configure.  If I could just pass --disable-alsa my process would be
simplified.

I initially started using icedtea 1.5 and am not using a snapshop of head.
