The sparc64 config should never allow you to build the amd7930 and
dbri sbus sound drivers, that is a bug, and I'll fix that.

However, there's supposedly the same problem for sparc32, because the ISDN
support for the amd7930 apparantly never worked (it wasn't even
selectable in the kernel-config), and thus the corresponding files in
drivers/isdn/hisax were removed. Looks like this broke the sparc build.
Is anybody willing to work with me on resolving this?

I'm wondering why building those drivers are options at all on sparc64
since none of the sparc64 machines (that I know of) currently available
have anything other than the cs4231 or no audio support.

Basically, those two should be removed from the config options for
sparc64... and in the meantime, you should build without 'em. :)

Note that 2.2.x has this exact fix already, and that 2.2.x fix
came from a similar bug report from Horst von Brand :-)
