Notable changes include:
- localisation support
- additional plugins, most notably the ability to play ogg-vorbis
files
- tons of bugfixes
- better sound buffer availability estimates for NetBSD (this
hopefully reduces jitter a bit on slower systems).
Add a new USE_LIBTOOL definition that uses the libtool package instead of
pkglibtool which is now considered outdated.
USE_PKGLIBTOOL is available for backwards compatibility with old packages
but is deprecated for new packages.
