Right, the port has a nice new patch [1], which means you don't need anything special in ${MPDCONF} any more. 0.16.1_2 will disable 24-bit audio support on non-Linux systems. I've heard from some that you may have trouble on this version with autodetected sound drivers; best to explicitly uncomment the oss section of mpd.conf. Any more complaints, pass them to me!
