We haven't made any significant improvements to the OSS implementation, just
a small patch that adds OSS_GETVERSION ioctl and a pair other macros.

See:

  http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/glibc-bsd/trunk/kfreebsd-5/debian/patches/017_oss_compat.diff?op=file&rev=0&sc=0

but if upstream wants to take it that's fine.  Feel free to forward this URL to
whoever it may concern.

Nice.  So there are plans in upstream for an ALSA compatibility layer!  That'd
be very helpful indeed.
