Thanks. Just tried those DLLs with C++ Builder and results are good. I
had to fudge some preparatory stuff but nevertheless:

a) The audio_sdl.c code pasted into Builder worked.
b) Simultaneous sounds were played.

This is windows "sdl" not "winmm" any more of course, so 'configure'
will need something to cater for that.

I'm about to tweek civclient to use them and play for bit. If that goes
ok then it'll be time to ensure the sources will build.
