I've done a bit more digging in the kernel source and it appears that
this card would be recognised by dev/pci/radeonfb.c which I'm adding to
a custom config with

radeonfb*       at pci? function ?      # ATI Radeon. R3xx is
problematic
options         RADEONFB_MMAP_BARS      # allow mmap()ing BARs - needed
for X

this was mentioned in the macppc GENERIC config, so we'll see how we get
on
