Re: libphysfs
I think using a 'stable' two year old release should be frowned upon even more, but that's perhaps only my opinion :)
Think about it this way: as it's a fairly complete lib and obviously inactive (except for latest 1.1.1 it died around 2005, right?) it's highly probable it fixed several bugs while not introducing new ones :)

Apparently the 1.1 branch is a "development" branch. I can try to
package that if we prefer but I thought that was generally frowned upon?
