When environmental audio is re-enabled it will be as a fairly complete rewrite using OpenAL/EFX, which should give us support for XP, Vista, and 7 as well as support for Linux and OSX*. We'd also like to get it working properly with hardware implementations - right now we seem to have some issues there.
*Obviously other things need to be rewritten before we can release builds for the unices.
