As the someone who took a shot at porting wdc driver to mac68k, I'd
like to know this, too.  I'm fine with either way.

If the stride means sparse bus_space, mac68k can't at the moment.  But
it's not impossible to implement such thing, of course.

I Cc'ed this message to our port master and the latest addition of Core
(congrats, Scott!), Scott Reynolds to get his attention.  Scott, what
do you think on this issue?
