It's not really worth it, if you ask me. Our sound drivers are on par
with (if not better than) the ALSA drivers.

It might serve useful to have a /dev/dsp that supports the ALSA ioctls,
but that wouldn't require a direct port so much as a compatibility
layer.

Your efforts would probably be better spent elsewhere -- I can think of
a few limitations of our audio subsystem that need fixing :^)
