FWIW, here's the eix output of the package...note the USE flags:

* media-sound/aqualung
     Available versions:  ~0.9_beta10-r2 {alsa cdda cddb debug ffmpeg
flac ifp jack ladspa lame libsamplerate lua modplug mp3 musepack oss
podcast sndfile speex systray vorbis wavpack}
     Homepage:            http://aqualung.factorial.hu/
     Description:         A music player for a wide range of formats
designed for gapless playback

I guess if you're a gapless junkie, or are into applying sound effects,
this will do it -- support for jack and ladspa. Also apparently supports
some amount of lua scripting, so it might have a decent number of plugins.

I would guess it's more foobar2000 territory than anything else.
