2.3.99-pre3-8 -- Even though ISAPNP is enabled, I have no /proc/isapnp file.

I have been testing a modified cs4232.c from Christoph
Hellwig who is implementing PNP support for more sound
drivers. He has written:

        Regarding the missing of /proc/isapnp on your
        computer, you _should_ have /proc/isapnp,
        even if the kernel does not recognize you pnp
        hardware. Bye the way, does your bios recognize
        the chip as pnp?

My dmesg output includes:

Mar 23 22:44:46 spot kernel: isapnp: Scanning for Pnp cards...
Mar 23 22:44:46 spot kernel: isapnp: No Plug & Play device found

Here are my configuration options for PNP and Sound:

        CONFIG_PNP=y
        CONFIG_ISAPNP=y
        CONFIG_SOUND=m
        CONFIG_SOUND_OSS=m
        CONFIG_SOUND_CS4232=m
        CONFIG_SOUND_YM3812=m

So my questions (which are all basically one question) are:

1) why would my cs4232 not get recognized as a PNP device?
2) Have I done something wrong that is preventing the
        /proc/isapnp file from being generated?
3) Is there something I need to do to get the cs4232
        working as a PNP device?
