Nah... I've waited this long. At least a fix is coming.

Sure, but my interpretation of the problem is that this was causing
FTBFS on any package in F19 that was trying to BuildRequires:
alsa-lib-devel because of changes made in GCC. It seems like the
correct behavior for alsa-lib to restore the existing functionality
than to force all downstreams to include a hack around the problem.
And it was nice and easy.

But yes, I certainly follow your point about his particular package
having the *option* of hacking around it if there was an urgent need.
