I only remember touching that line to rebase it onto either Memory API
or QOM. The i82378 is the sole PCI-ISA bridge so all ISA devices will be
affected by it, which is pretty much everything except VGA iirc.
The upcoming pc87312(?) Super I/O also would be attached to it,
replacing some of the bogus I/O in the current "prep" machine.
I'm not familiar with what this option affects. What unexpected side
effects would you expect? :)
Regards,
Andreas
