It is in -current/4.0 and has also been added at some point of the
RELENG_3 branch. The driver version in -current has some fixes not yet
committed to RELENG_3. Driver sources are located in src/sys/dev/sym/.

If you need to use the `sym' driver from -current under a recent RELENG_3
(post 3.4), this should compile and work. You just have to get latest
driver files from -current and move them to the corresponding 3.4->
directory (src/sys/dev/sym). Compilation options against FreeBSD version
let the driver use pci_compat under 3.X. 

The driver also works under 3.2 and 3.3, but some simple changes in kernel
config files are needed for it to be configured.

Gérard.
