  The sync inhibit code is in the driver.  The symbol is
_sbic_inhibit_sync and it's a single long word that either inhibits sync
transfer negotiation on all drives for the 33c93-type controllers, or
enables sync negotiation on all drives.  The default should be 1, which
will inhibit sync negotiation.  You have to change it to 0 to enable
sync negotiation.

  There is no _sddebug anymore (and hasn't been for some time).  The SCSI
debug stuff has to be explicitly enabled by an option in the config file,
and also requires a method of enabling the debug mode & level on a per-target
basis.
