That made a huge difference!  Thanks.

I got 0.118 compiled on both machines, and tested that it works as it
used to.  It seems to do fine.  However, I'm trying to follow the
directions on http://trac.jackaudio.org/wiki/WalkThrough/User/NetJack to
get things running in the right sequence.  I start jack normally on my
desktop (master), then run jackd -R -d net on my laptop (slave).  It
says it is creating it, but never gives a completion notice.  It just
sits there.  Also, on my desktop, when I run the 'jack_netsource -H
laptop' command, it says it cannot connect to an oss device, and exits. 
(I'm using alsa on both machines).  I haven't found an option for
'jack_netsource' that lets me specify an alsa backend.  A possibly
related issue is that, when I compiled it, it said it was not including
alsa support (although I tested jackd using alsa - using the same
startup configuration I was using with 0.109).

I'm confused.
