Actually, it'll less likely be a problem with the PCI 'front end' as the
SWIZZLE macros for the request/response queue entries- the UltraLinux version
of this driver exercises those, but this issue hasn't really come up in NetBSD
as yet and could use a bit of cleanup. More than 15 minutes but less than a
half day I'd say- it was always on my list to try and check it out on a PPC
machine, but unfortunately I haven't got one any more (my AIX box got snarfed
back by it's owner last week).
