Ooh, this rings a bell - I remember trying to record a realaudio
stream once, and someone suggested something called "linux-vsound",
because I was too cheap to buy the gold version (and too proud to
resort to win****).

It was a FreeBSD port (== package in NetBSD lingo), so I assume it would
run in a BSD Limuxulator...

The distfile is at:

ftp://ftp.freesoftware.com/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/vsound-0.4.tar.gz

(and I expect it's in /pub/FreeBSD/ports/.... on the FreeBSD FTP server,
but I can't get to it right now).

Looking at the Makefile, it needs the Linux emulation stuff, so it
probably only works with Linux binaries, but it could be a starting point
for a native version?
