Right. (Hi Duane. I still appreciate your and Walt's help with this.)

The problem seems to be that the maintainers of jack_fst didn't want to commit
the small workaround to the code tree and the existing source doesn't work
unless it is so it currently falls to the user to do this.

I'm unclear as to what state this puts things in as fars as bugs.winehq.org is
concerned. I'd truly like to see jack_fst fixed somehow. Since a good portion of
this is really Linux code that works only with Wine is there any method to have
Wine helper apps brought under Wine's umbrella so that this wasn't really an
Alsa/Jack developers issue but something that could be worked on within Wine's
sphere of influence? This might be best done as part of Wine trully supporting
Jack, and maybe that's best done later. I don't know.

As I said early on, there are literally 1000's of VSTs out there. Finding a way
to run them correctly and consistently under Wine would be a cool way to pump up
the number of Windows apps that work under Wine. If this was an 'application' I
could easily get 50-100 people to come vote for it in a few days. It would be
very popular.

Then again, I'm not a developer so I don't know the real ins and outs of this
request.

I'm also OK with completely closing the bug with a 'Will not fix' decision if
need be. If it makes no sense it makes no sense.
