The game just hang if you try to run it (on Win32 and XPx64)
If you dont have config.cfg or if in config.cfg
set cl_introshown "0" a
is present

If i change
src/client/cl_main.c
cl_introshown = Cvar_Get("cl_introshown", "0", CVAR_ARCHIVE, "Only show the intro once at the initial start");
to
cl_introshown = Cvar_Get("cl_introshown", "1", CVAR_ARCHIVE, "Only show the intro once at the initial start");
i can run the game if no config.cfg was found
but
if set cl_introshown "0" a is set in config.cfg the game will still hang

The question is why does the game hang with option cl_introshown=0

I'll patch cl_main.c to work around the main problem to "get" the game running again
rev 31061

this is sound thread related imo - setting cl_introshown to 1 is no fix for the problem - just a hack to hide the problem even more

maybe r31139 fixes this - feedback is welcome on current trunk (with cl_introshown set to 0)

./ufo +set cl_introshown 0

there was another attempt to fix this in r31246 (at least it fixed the issue for me on my old linux box)
