gcc4 BSound on alpha builds can not use media plugins

[Adek336]

The playsound function comes from the Be book  http://www.haikudev.com/bebookpl/The%20Media%20Kit/SoundPlayer.html#BSoundPlayer

#include <Application.h>
#include <Sound.h>
#include <SoundPlayer.h>
#include <Entry.h>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void playsound(const char *path) { 
   BSound *sound; 
   BSoundPlayer player; 
   entry_ref ref; 
   BEntry entry(path, true); 
   BSoundPlayer::play_id id; 

   if (entry.InitCheck() == B_OK) { 
      if (entry.GetRef(&ref) == B_OK) { 
         sound = new BSound(&ref); 
         if (sound->InitCheck() == B_OK) { 
            player.Start(); 
            player.SetVolume(1.0); 
            id = player.StartPlaying(sound); 
            sound->ReleaseRef(); 
            player.WaitForSound(id); 
         } 
      } 
   } 
} 

int main()
{
	new BApplication("application/x-vnd.program");
	playsound("/Blank_BFS/sample.wav");
	return 0;
}

On the alpha:

< copy a wave file as /Blank_BFS/sample.wav >
setgcc gcc4
g++ mkit.cc -lbe -lmedia -o mkit
mkit

Problem: the media kit tries to load the gcc2 plugin, does not try to look for a gcc4 plugin.

Also known as #3437, where it happens to gcc2 compiled applications under hybrid4.

The blocking ticket #4920 was fixed in r33997, would you retest this?

Didn't help.
