  Running the test program on an Alpha with an onboard isp(4), it appears
to run correctly.  It also appears to run correctly on the 53c875 
esiop(4).  This 53c875 is the same type of board that's in an i386 system 
that was failing when using odd addresses.  I'd suspect that the i386 DMA 
may require an even address.  I've got an amd64 system with an isp(4) and 
Compaqs with ciss(4) that I'll also try testing.
