I have downloaded, configured, compiled, and installed libsndfile from
the site mentioned.
I recompiled ChucK from a fresh archive and now the OTF stuff seems to
work.  Being still a bit early I didn't yet test it extensively.  I
DID get output w/ the first OTF example file using the instructions
therein in two tabbed terminal windows with 'chuck --loop' in the
first and 'chuck + otf_01.ck' in the other.

I refrained from doing the libsndfile install at first because I
already had it loaded via RPM.

Now on my OTHER box, which isn't up at the moment using FC4 i seemed
to experience problems with ChucK finding the libsound library.  I'll
look at it later today and report back to you what I found.

Thanks.

ciao,
furlan
