>Description:
Since version 1.15 audio/openal-soft has an integer overflow bug which
results in heavy distortions in conjunction with the OSS backend. It
can be triggered on at least snd_hda and snd_envy24ht with several
applications. The bug was confirmed by Chris Robinson (author of
openal-soft) and he send me the attached patch. It fixes the problem
and I guess that it should be included into the port until a new 
upstream version is released.

The attached patch adds the file files/patch-Alc-ALu.c to
audio/openal-soft.

>How-To-Repeat:
Install audio/openal-soft and start any OpenAL based application. For
example games/ioquake3. The sound will distort if the application volume
is high enough.
