Well with all the fun and the mind bendiness of the results of my
earlier tests I thought that there might be a slim chance that something
got buggered up with the lifetime of patching that particular kernel
tree got on my system and since rc4 was out I decided to start afresh.

I untarred 2.6.5, patched to 2.6.9-rc4, turned on the PCI debugging as
per request, compiled and rebooted. End result?

PDC20267: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:0d.0
IRQ for 0000:00:0d.0:0 -> PIRQ 60, mask 0ef8, excl 0000 -> newirq=11 -> got IRQ 11
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 0000:00:0d.0
PDC20267: chipset revision 2
PDC20267: 100% native mode on irq 11
PDC20267: (U)DMA Burst Bit ENABLED Primary PCI Mode Secondary PCI Mode.
    ide2: BM-DMA at 0x1080-0x1087, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio
    ide3: BM-DMA at 0x1088-0x108f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio, hdh:pio

hdh: ST3200822A, ATA DISK drive
ide3 at 0x10f8-0x10ff,0x1806 on irq 11

It worked!

Now thinking that I may have just right royally buggered up I compiled
rc3 again, starting from a totally fresh tree like I did with rc4 and
the problem was still there. No promise card. (phew... kinda)

So basically, something got fixed between rc3 and rc4. Personally, I
call shenanigans.
