Not only a rebuild is required, the application must add some small 
changes in the source to work with libzita-convolver-4.
Indeed the remove of the set density function make it incompatible, but, 
that seems a sensible choice to me, as the change in the 
impdata_update() function (required to run impdata_clear() before, to 
archive the old behave) would lead to unwanted results otherwise.
Fons had mentioned long ago that he would change the API at some point 
in future and warned developers to use libzita-convolver because of that.

I've just add support for for version 4 in guitarix, the version to use 
get selected (depend on which version you've installed) during 
configure/compile time.
