We could hack it to make it stays 3 instead go with 5, but I figure that  
the ltverhack will giving us a good job in the long run than hack at the  
each times by ourselves. No more to figure out if it is backward  
compatible or whatever. This decision will be made by the speex  
developer(s).

Yeah, that's true. When the ltverhack was added, a lot of Mono ports don't  
need many patches anymore. Many of mono apps use dlopen() on libraries.
