There shouldn't be anything linux-specific, I think.  Individual 
elements should be detected at configure time.  Most of these will be 
available on all POSIX-like environments.  Usually the man page will say.

For stuff like OSS and ALSA they are linux-specific, but again should be 
checked for individually (use ALSA if available, otherwise use OSS, etc).

HAVE_X is synonymous (well, reversed from) with X_DISPLAY_MISSING.  See 
renderer.h.

No idea.
