  The 5000/200 SCSI seems to have some problems in some configurations.
I originally thought it might be only with newer SCSI hardware, but I
was able to duplicate a number of problems with quite old DEC SCSI
devices.  I've got some fixes and workarounds in -current for several
of the problems I could duplicate.  I tried to get them into 1.3.2,
but they weren't accepted.  I can provide the patches if you can build
your own kernel.  I might also be able to build a 1.3.2 kernel with
these patches.
