The thing that bugged me about sbpcd when I was fiddling with it a few
months ago was the statement in sbpcd.h ``user-serviceable parts!''
(which is still there in 2.0.0 I see).

This is not a reasonable thing to do when maintaining multiple
configurations out of the same source tree.

Why can't this kind of information be put into something accessible
from `make xconfig'? The sound drivers used to be broken in the same
way, but they were fixed.
