Rev 2.0 of the PCI spec (1993) defines two mechanisms for config cycles. #2 is probably the first one and maps all of PCI config space into 4k of IO space (PCI bridges aren't supported). #1 requires a pair of accesses (and SMP locking). Neither is really horrid. For horrid try the ISApnp interface.
