Sort of: You have to start these apps in a bash/shell where the 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH points to your self-compiled jack-libs before the systems 
jack-libs.

NOTE: This is a trick rather common in developing, but its not easy and for 
every day usage of normal users. So if you stumble across this (in the 
archives) and have no idea what this is about, _don't even think about it_!
Thats also the reason why I don't give any more details above. If you know how 
to achieve it, you are okay to use it but otherwise just ignore this mail...
