I looked at Documentation/MSI-HOWTO.txt(linux-ia64-release-2.6.11) and 
it mentioned that CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC has to be configured.  I did not 
find this configured on in any sample ia64 config files, but it does 
exist in defconfig for i386.  Is this just an ia32 config option?

Pretty soon.

Is there any ia64 box with MSI and PCIE actually "activated and running"?

Thanks.
