Please see #636631, you need at least this patch for oss4 build system
to work on GNU/kFreeBSD.

As for oss4-dev usability, it will certainly be useful once oss4-dkms
is ported.  My patch resolves the beginning of this but it doesn't
enable the kernel module.  It doesn't hurt to enable oss4-dev
functionality for at least [linux-any kfreebsd-any] IMHO.

<linux/soundcard.h> shouldn't be included directly from userland.  Use
<sys/soundcard.h> instead, which does the right thing on each
platform.
