These relate to the VAMP analysis plugins.

Timestretching library, replaces soundtouch since Ardour 2.2.

I'd guess that's Ardour's internal copy of libsndfile.

I don't know this one, my guess is that it relates to the OS X port.

C++ interface for GTK+, Ardour specific version I think.

I think all these control surface libraries are specific to Ardour; at 
least I don't recall seeing them in an external library.
