There have been few changes to parport_pc but one thing recent changed
the probe for SuperIO chips via low addresses and that could be
interfering.

changed the behaviour slightly (hence asking about which release if it
was a recent breakage). Its also a code area with very few changes so if
you can find which one worked last, you should be able to transplant that
parport_pc into 2.6.current and see if its parport or acpi triggered
breakage.
