 Subject: Optionally link libopenal at compile time
 
 In Linux distributions, having the executable depend on the right
 libraries and arrange for them to be installed is straightforward,
 and there's a lot of infrastructure for tracking which library
-version a particular executable needs. Loading libopenal at runtime
-defeats that.
+version a particular executable needs, including making sure we have
+a version that contains all of the symbols that were used. Loading
+libopenal at runtime defeats that infrastructure.
 
-The Debian packaging previously did the same for libGL, but an
-equivalent change was made upstream in version 5.20.
+The ability to substitute a different-but-compatible libopenal,
+or operate with reduced functionality without libopenal, might
+still be desirable for generic/portable binary releases.
+
+The CMake build system already linked the executable to
+${OPENAL_LIBRARY} anyway, so it is already a hard dependency in that
+build system.
