Jack, Ardour and Alsaplayer are now all building. The relevant bugs, 
with ebuilds attached, are:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12227
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12241
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12271

Ardour currently only builds with --disable-ksi (could it be made the 
default?) The updated ebuild adds support for USE="-ksi". It must 
therefore be built with:

env USE="-ksi" emerge ardour-cvs-0.5-r1.ebuild

Next up are some plugins. But first i have to go to work :-(
