 I will ask the author about this, but the reasons could be of course not that
compatible programming models of esd and arts (or probably there is no C API
for arts that supports all functions needed for emulation) and (less likely)
desire not to increase data segment of apps using libesd signtifically (by
pages of libartsc and libs it depends upon).
