The short answer: Jack 1 and Jack 2 are equivalent implementations of the
same protocol. Jack 2 was originally written to add multi-processor
support and to rewrite the internals using C++. Programs compiled against
Jack 1 will work with Jack 2 without recompile (and vice versa). Jack 2
was originally planned to replace Jack 1, but this is no longer so and
they are considered equivalent implementations. JACK is a C API, and so
the C++ rewrite in Jack 2 only matters to the people who program/maintain
jack.
I'll update the port to 0.125 - Homebrew mentions they can't get jack2 to
compile and i don't see a reason to try unless someone provides a patch.
