I used the Csound 5.03.0 sources from sourceforge.  I saw there were some config 
options related to floating point <-> integer conversion, are those anything to 
worry about?  In any case, I haven't done anything specific with your and 
Barry's code; so if you've got a patch we'll need to bring that in.

A few questions I came up with:

a) What bits require Tk, and was that just a case of somebody writing a tool in 
the language they knew?
b) What is lib_csnd.so and how does it differ from libcsound.so?  Why two?
c) Why does csound redefine printf()?  That leads to compile warnings on pretty 
much every file.
d) Should there be init scripts to start csound up when the machine starts?
