The problem is that it is currently not that easy to make clean code.
And I think the cause is that most people don't want to code multiple
code paths for mint/magic/tos/whatever.

to make things clean, which was a bit hard. And now, I must write a
/dev/audio MiNT driver for SDL, so we could know if the current device
driver is usable or not.
