That was a bit my goal with this patch:
http://gitorious.org/~elmarco/spice/elmarco-spice/commit/e310493a3e5a28f4b41dbc13cfaad7f982bca651

It's incomplete and untested. You can read it doesn't negotiate the
version of CELT, leaving it as undefined/latest. It could do it
probably for correctness.

I personally think this is a crazy idea, because of the instability of
CELT bitstream and API and the numerous versions out there. I would
rather just keep 0.5.1 for now.

cheers
