but this sounds like the perfect opportunity to not do a simple fork,
but to send patches to upstream so fons' aeolus could support both
fftw3 and ffmpeg FFTs.
it might be a win-win situation, where not only more than just the
original aeolus users can profit from fons' work (because you use his
code) but also more than just your users can profit from your work
(because you changes are included into upstream aeolus).
