I dug up my e-mails, and kern/25370
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=25370) has most of the bashing
that Soren and I did.  According to the PR, a fix was committed to
the -current branch on 4/16/01.

I concur that the fix didn't get into 4.3-RELEASE (since my Creative 4x
still fails), and I don't know about 4.4-RELEASE.

Soren, can you elaborate on what files were patched to fix this, and when it
will be (or when it was) MFC'd?
