 It shows
 
 vestlia: {2} make show-vars VARNAMES=3D"_LIBAO_DEFAULT_PLUGIN OPSYS"
 oss
 NetBSD
 vestlia: {3} =
 
 
 BTW, when using the oss device type (after my manual tweak to libao;
 it was not recognized earlier) required me to manually create a
 symlink /dev/dsp, pointing to /dev/sound, while pkgsrc did not warn me
 that I had to do so.
 
 The reason this may be a problem on my side is that I've run with a
 partially updated pkgsrc (mk and audio from pkgsrc-2006Q1 IIRC); I'm
 updating it all now.
