It doesn't build. The module stuff in joystick.c conflicts with main.c
during linking, you sort of have to decide whether or not the joystick
port driver is seperate or is a part of the entire emu10k1 module. By
the way, is the joystick port driver intended to replace the one
selected under the character devices -> joystick selection?
