New description:
I downloaded and installed A-Player from http://www.polycode.dk/
Launching it results in a deskbar entry, but the window doesn't show up.
I had a look at the sourcecode, apparently A-Player is trying to load add-
ons and Haiku's runtime loader doesn't look in the right folder.
A-Player does something like load_add_on("somefile") while the file is
actually located in "$(PROGDIR)/add-ons/somefile". Running A-Player by
doing "cd add-ons ; ../APlayer" works fine. I think the runtime loader is
not looking in this particular folder.
