Report back:

In theory: Luigi's sound driver and Amancio's sound driver have the 
same soundcard.h. In practice, each developer worked independantly on 
this file. We are now in the untenable situation where the different 
soundcard.h's are very different. When I committed Amancio's driver to 
the tree, I put his driver in The Right Place (tm). Luigi's driver, 
however has been put in the same place as the rest of his code, 
which is The Wrong Place (tm). We now need to either

1) break these two files _way_ apart and rename them to different 
names, or
2) merge them properly.

IMHO, #2 should be done.

Please could you sound developers merge your changes and requirements 
into The Right Place (tm) being sys/i386/includes/soundcard.h, and 
remove sys/i386/isa/snd/soundcard.h? This will have the added benefit 
of not requiring evil symlinks to make Luigi's code work.

Thanks!
