That would be surprising. Perhaps the Audacity developers were using a
distro that adds .pc files for these two libs?

Could you try to find out what the story of this function is? It would
be best to avoid using the bundled PortAudio.

OK.

Perhaps that problem would magically vanish when using system’s
PortAudio because headers would be in $CPATH.

The rest of the patch looks good to me; just the PortAudio issue needs
to be resolved.
Perhaps Ricardo has an opinion?
Thanks,
