FYI, this change breaks audio/gkrellmvolume2 (when compiled from source; 
existing binaries should work fine).  Just finished rebuilding all my ports 
on a day-old CURRENT and noticed that all the volume controls were missing.

As far as I can tell it's picking up the recently-added SOUND_MIXER_INFO macro 
and puking when it finds out that the kernel doesn't actually support the 
ioctl for it yet.  Admittedly, gkrellmvolume should probably have a better 
failure mode than ignoring the entire mixer, but it took me a little by 
surprise :)

Umemoto-san: I'm not sure if this is worth putting a patch in the ports tree 
or not -- I guess it depends on how soon "future" is in the above statement.

Anyway, I'm attaching a quick workaround if anyone else running current runs 
in to this.

Happy hacking,
Craig
