I'm fixing this right now ... writing an ahc_isa.c front-end for the 
VLbus card.  Now that we have i/o space accounting on the i386, it's 
possible to do this.

However, it's worth noting that the extent mapping code needed for this 
is not in the release branch sources (i.e. it's "post-1.2" code...)
