As long as you don't try to recompile your 1.1 host against a 1.2
header, yes... but not all hosts come with a copy of ladspa.h in their
source tree (at least I don't in my project... maybe I should??). This
would break balls to gentoo/arch/etc. people (and I am an arch user)
:-)

Well, I am in Turin now, but I come from a little village in the South
which is way cooler and drier and A LOT less polluted than this city.
Anyway, I guess in Senegal it is always hot, while in Italy it is hot
in summer and relatively cold in winter, this might explain why people
complain, maybe (and maybe, Italian people just like to complain
sometimes ;-)
