I've posted before about my difficulties with the newer aic7xxx
drivers introduced in 2.0.31 and ~2.1.45.  Here's an update, if it
might help someone.

I just installed Red Hat 5.0, which comes with 2.0.32.  To my great
surprise, I had no trouble loading the aic7xxx driver as a module.
However, when I compile it into the kernel, I get an oops.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd really appreciate it.  I've already tried
to do a little poking around to see what the driver does differently
as a module as opposed to compiled into the kernel.  If a repost of
the call trace might help, I have one of those too.

TIA,
Dave
