VST support cannot be incorporated into any distributable binary build.
The Steinberg header files have a license that is incompatible with the
GPL. 

Since then I have built 2.7.1 and I did not enable lv2 support. I'll see
what is involved with that.

Sorry, I don't really know. I imagine newest is best but I can't be
sure. I a few tests I did for 2.7.1 under fc9 everything seemed to be
fine.
