Still something wrong with Linux on 6.2-stable/amd64

I just tried the same game on a Linux (Red Hat Enterprise 3.0):

Linux ny-lxdesk38 2.6.9-55.0.2.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue Jun 12 17:58:20 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The executable starts and runs perfectly, but the kernel logs the
following message:

 application civctp uses obsolete OSS audio interface

Maybe, that's related to the problem on -stable? It says the same
thing about realplay (version 8)...

BTW, here is how to extract the dead port of civ2demo from the Attic
quickly (presuming /usr/ports already exists and is writable by you):

 cd /usr
 cvs -d pcvs.FreeBSD.org:/home/pcvs -z9 co -rRELEASE_6_0_0 ports/games/civ2demo

Although the MASTER_SITE is no longer reachable, FreeBSD-mirrors still
carry the freely-distributable archive civctp-demo-10251999.tar.gz.
Just add ``amd64'' to the list of ONLY_FOR_ARCHS in the Makefile.

After the port installs, try running ``civctp_demo''.

Thanks. Yours,
