I'm having some problems compiling with this flag set, but I'll reread
everything to make sure I'm not doing something stupid...

I've only got two to choose from, and I got the same result with the card in the
other slot.

I've looked back over my previous communications and I think I've failed to
point this out:

PCI: PCI BIOS revision 2.00 entry at 0xfc9b7
PCI: Using configuration type 1
PCI: Probing PCI hardware
PCI: Assigning I/O space 5800-581f to device 01:20
PCI: Enabling I/O for device 01:20
PCI: Assigning I/O space 5820-583f to device 01:28
PCI: Enabling I/O for device 01:28
PCI: Device 01:20 not found by BIOS
PCI: Device 01:28 not found by BIOS

Is it of any consequence?
