ALSA consists of three parts: - the userspace library, alsa-lib; - the ALSA framework in the kernel; and - various ALSA drivers, also in the kernel. The library can use other backends (such as OSS or PulseAudio), so it might make sense to compile it on other OSes. However, this does not help you if you want to use the ALSA FireWire driver. FFADO does not use ALSA but a generic FireWire driver, but that is Linux specific, too.
