 Through the valueable help of Matias D'Ambrosio I got a patched version
of openal that enabled me to build hugs98 again (supertuxkart currently
still building - but given that it failed at configure stage already I
am confident that it fixes that, too).

 I will work out a way to incorporate the cherry picked commits for the
source update he provided me into our openal-soft package and will do an
MU for it propably later today (or pabs, not sure right now who's the
one to suffer and gets added to the Uploaders list ;))

 For the record, the problem was some deconstructor being called without
checking wether a constructor was actually called. Besides that this
shouldn't really appear in actual use of the library it is a bad thing
anyway and will get fixed with next upstream release.

 So long,
Rhonda
