The ISA PIC address for acknowledging interrupts is actually defined
in residual data as a 32-bit system address, rather than a 32-bit 
memory address.  This is rather embarrasing, as I don't think this
function has done the right thing, ever.

Tested and working fine on my Carolina and 140.

Thanks,

Leigh.

And this is important, as 2.6.9-rcX suffer from the dreaded Carolina 
"lost interrupt" problems. Could we try to get this patch into 2.6.9 
final?
