Generally it's not very hard. If the rofug.ro patchset does not provide 
patches already I suggest that you look at: 
http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/person/kjc/kjc/software/altq-new-design.txt

"4 How to convert the existing drivers" is a list of very simple "search for 
FOO and replace it with BAR" examples. It usually boils down to searching for 
"if_snd" and picking the right replacement from the list. Reading the whole 
thing is of course suggested ...

For FreeBSD 5.x you have to take the locking into account. Look at Pyun's em 
patches, there is an example for that and there are more in the rofug.ro 
patchset.

For some drivers it's not that easy, if you run into problems ... please, let 
me know.
