It's amusing that Tiki was originally meant as a compatability layer for
KOS apps on other OSes, and yet it's being ported back to KOS and running
into compatability issues. :D

The best thing we can do, where possible, is patch stuff back into the
canonical sources, even if that means some #if's. So e.g. instead of having
plxcompat, just include the appropriate plx headers.

I haven't had a chance to look at the code yet, but how do you guys [plan
to] deal with the fact that a lot of the graphics primitives in Tiki are
talking to GL? Just plumbing through KGL? It'll never be terribly high
performance that way but that's probably simplest.

That's probably indicative of the sound having not loaded properly to
begin with.
