Please unblock package zsnes

The only difference between this and version 1.510+bz2-4, which is already in
testing, is that we built zsnes without libao support. The rationale is that
libao has frequently been a source of trouble for zsnes (c.f. #470410, #679826,
#638741). Since zsnes can fall back to the SDL audio driver instead, we
consider it more safe to remove libao for wheezy. On top of this, it will
finally be possible to install zsnes:i386 on amd64 via multi-arch. By now it is
merely possible to install zsnes in a i386-chroot on amd64, but this reportedly
gives errors with sound play back due to, well, libao.

Please find the output of git-diff attached.
