	Hi Tilman,
	I think you have two very interesting issues here.  I'm busy
right now but I'll try to get time to look at them, don't give up if
you don't here from me :)  I anticipate this hump will be over in a
couple of days but maybe through 'till the weekend
	1/ There is a dependency on ISA in the generic PCM code.  This
is news to me and we need to get rid of it.
	2/ There is a lock order reversal.  We haven't seen one of
these in a while for the sound code. 

	Just to clear things up for me, when you say Mac mini, this
means you aren't running the standard i386/amd64, right?

ps, i've removed sound the the list as I think it's only me at the
moment.
