>Description:
When playing falcons-eye with esd audio enabled and linux_midi_player
option set for timidity in esd mode, the graphics hang. This is caused by a missing include of pthread.h in the SDL esd audio, allowing a threaded write to be used. Since this was added by NetBSD patches for the other audio modes, I thought it should be added
for esd as well. This makes the audio work for me, and with a patch I submitted to falcons-eye, I am able to play both background, and sound effects at the same time (and even desktop audio).

As described above

Add following patch similar to

 I don't have this at the moment, so will have to check.
 However this also required a change to falcons-eye that I only submitted
 to falcons-eye, not pkgsrc. I found this old patch which had few comments.
 I include this below.

 Summary: esd based player fix

 Initial Comment:
 When playing background music using an esd(esound)
 based player
 (timidity in esd mode in my case) The graphics thread
 hangs.

 The following patch fixed this. Also a patch for SDL on
 NetBSD for esd fixed a problem of sound effects hanging
 the graphics. Now I have both background, and sound
 effects playing at the same time on NetBSD!

 I guess one of the open descriptors it set back from non-blocking.
 The above is certainly not correct code (a program can somewhat expect
 0-2 to be valid decsriptors, but it hints to the real problem).
