Looking at ChangeLog shipped with the tarball, I can read the following:


2009-02-08	Tom Szilagyi <tszilagyi at users dot sourceforge dot net>

    * Aqualung 0.9beta10
        http://aqualung.factorial.hu

	* Add programmable title format support.
	
	  This commit embeds a Lua interpreter inside of Aqualung for the
	  purpose of allowing the user full control over the title format. It
	  allows the user to use any metadata field that Aqualung recognizes,
	  as well as a few fields from the file info in order to compose a
	  title field.  See the documentation update included in this release
	  for usage information for this feature.
	
	* Loop playback enhancements:
	
	  New key bindings '<' and '>' for adjusting loop range start and end
	  (respectively) to the current playing position. Active only when
	  track repeat mode is on and a track is currently playing or paused.
	
	  Added tooltip showing loop range in percentage and time (if there is
	  a track loaded). Tooltips must be globally enabled for this feature.
	
	* Allow the systray to be disabled even if support is compiled in.
	
	* Add support for saving single playlists in M3U format. If the
	  playlist file name ends with .m3u, it will save in M3U format (one
	  filename per line) instead of the Aqualung XML format. This only
	  affects the logic around saving single playlists; if you save all
	  playlists at once, it will always use the XML format, because the
	  M3U format does not support multiple playlists.
	
	* Add support for sndio backend, bringing the total number of
	  backends to five. libsndio was recently introduced in OpenBSD as
	  a simple audio API that supports OpenBSD's builtin sound server,
	  aucat.
	
	* Add playlist context menu option 'Roll to active song'.
	
	* Optionally combine Play and Pause buttons into a single button.
	
	* Fix gapless MPEG audio playback (correct offset calculation) when
	  ID3v2 tag is present.
	
	* Export can now copy files instead of reencoding them using the new
	  target format "Copy".
	
	* A subset of input files can be forced to be copied instead of being
	  reencoded. There are two criteria for this: when the source file is
	  already in the target format, and when the source file matches any
	  of a comma-separated list of wildchards (similarly to the builder
	  exclusion list). Both options can be enabled/disabled from the
	  Export dialog.
	
	* Handle HTTP/1.0 responses.
	
	* When updating all feeds, insert 1 second delay between individual feeds.
	
	* Added right-click menu items for adding only new podcasts to playlist.
	
	* Music Stores can now use relative paths instead of absolute ones,
	  allowing users to mount the same collection on different mount
	  points (just one use case). Implementation is based on the patch by
	  Russell Johnston, big thanks for both the idea and the
	  contribution. A checkbox for toggling this feature is added to the
	  Edit Store dialog (accessible via the right-click menu of stores).
	
	* All filenames use the GLib filename encoding instead of locale
	  encoding. This is the proper and official way of doing it; if you
	  have issues using filenames with special characters, consider
	  setting the G_FILENAME_ENCODING or G_BROKEN_FILENAMES environment
	  variables. If you are using an UTF-8 locale (a very wise choice),
	  you have nothing to worry about.
	
	* Add extra check for mad.h presence to configure.
	
	* New store builder option to automatically remove non-existing files
	  from the store. It is disabled by default.
	
	* Added new Swedish translation by Niklas Grahn.

        * Numerous minor bugfixes.


I don't think it's an bugfix-only update, but for getting a second
opinion I'm subscribing MOTU release.
