I'm not sure, but it shouldn't be to bad.  They lifted code from the
Linux kernel for the PCI stuff to support.

My first crack was to compile it under Linux emulation to show people it 
worked.  The PCI stuff scared me off initially since I would prefer to 
use FreeBSD based stuff to avoid GPL vs. BSD license issues.
