Worked for me from the nightly CVS snapshot, too. What's more I could build 
and install libao and subsequently build vorbis-tools without having to use a 
CVS version, which is nice.

As an aside, I notice that a lot of extensions are detected via the existance 
of some sort of foo-config script (gtk,artsc and so on), but these scripts 
are usually included in debian library packages and not the corresponding 
lib-dev package. This tends to mean that you get part way into building 
before you discover you need to apt-get some development package, and it's 
not as clear as it could be as to what you're missing.   

I think I should report this as a bug to debian, but there might be case for 
including the config script in the library package that will keep things this 
way for a while. Anyone know what rpms tend to do?
