I've not looked to closely at the the symbols that are undefined
with the OSS driver, but I suspect that it uses parts of the VM system
that it that was never part of the "official" VM API.
Maybe they are trying to allocate dma-able memory?

I'm curious, which feature(s) of the OSS driver is it that
you are missing in the NetBSD audio driver?
