      The Multimedia module fails to build on RHEL 4 because of missing symbol:
      snd_pcm_hw_params_set_rate_resample

      This is because the test.config test for ALSA passes:

      #include <alsa/asoundlib.h>
      int main(int argc,char **argv)
      {
      return 0;
      }

      This however is NOT a sufficient test.

      The test needs to at least check for:
      snd_pcm_hw_params_set_rate_resample

      There is also no way to disable ALSA in the configure script, as the logic was not added. This needs to be addressed as well.
