With gmake, autoconf, automake, libtool installed just to be sure that you have them ;) Also, for the sound aspects under FreeBSD you should probably speak to Cameron Grant who did most of the newpcm work under FreeBSD-CURRENT. You of course want to be sure you have a complete /usr/src available on the machine and probably another copy to work on or a repository from which you can check out the appropriate stuff. Your best/handiest editor should also be installed of course together with any tools you use for development. Colourised diff, various things from /usr/ports/devel, etc. Hope this gives at least a start for you. And I hope others will give you a hand towards some of the innards of the kernel with which they have experience.
