Hmmm. So, you are saying that we need to take esound,
rename it gsound and check it back in to CVS?

There is nothing Enlightenment-specific about esound,
other than the fact that Enlightement uses it.
esound isn't perfect, especially in the area of real-time 
audio streams, but the right way to handle this 
is to improve esound, not to rewrite it...
