I've been building with --without-sound, and didn't have the ALSA
library package installed either.
I don't have a machine where I could actually test whether sound comes
out, but the alsa-lib package in NetBSD pkgsrc includes an internal
type_compat.h header that does this:
#ifndef ESTRPIPE
#define ESTRPIPE EPIPE
#endif
Building emacs with sound enabled but alsa-lib _not_ installed seems
to work (= compiles and starts) by using the system OSS library. Since
Emacs's audio needs are modest, it may be better to use "bsd-ossaudio"
on NetBSD if --with-sound=yes. AFAICT "ALSA" on NetBSD is just a proxy
for the native audio system anyway.
The other option is to try and use ALSA if --with-sound=yes, but
#ifdef out the ESTRPIPE branch if ESTRPIPE is not defined.
Personally I'd go with the default-to-ossaudio option, since pulling in
alsa libraries introduces a pkgsrc dependency into the binary and doesn't
seem like it provides a lot of benefit. I'm not quite sure what's the
best way to convince configure.ac to act like this, but I can test
patches at least on a compiles/doesn't-compile level.
