Yes, a while back I started working on a driver, but never finished
it. It's still on my todo list, but there are other APIs right now that
are more important to get fixed, and Audacity seems to be the only
popular application relying on PortAudio right now. It's on my TODO
list, but far from the top.

Since that work bitrotted a bit since then the work I did back then is
probably not worth much these days anymore.
