Stop using deprecated dlopen() constructors
As I re-discovered for the third time last evening, LADSPA programmers still haven’t made the switch from _init() to __attribute__((constructor)) void init() {}.
The older mechanism has been deprecated since the early/mid ’90s. Most operating systems still supported it but with MacOSX 10.4, Apple dropped support when they implemented their own dlopen() support.
I’ve sent an email about it to the LAD mailing list, but apparently no one listened.
fftw and intel iMacs
If you are trying to compile fftw3 on an intel iMac (or any Intel Core processor probably), you’ll need to pass to configure:
–with-gcc-arch=prescott
That will prevent compiler errors complaining about illegal i386 instructions.

Ardour's new website
Check out the new site for Ardour that we (mostly me) made. It uses the latest Drupal beta and it’s pretty rocking.
