It's not in 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1?

Did you remove that support from the libata patches at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/ ?

2.6.15-libata1.patch added Promise PATA-on-SATA for my PC20378 (see my
email from earlier today)...

In fact, back on 09/09/05, Matt (Reuther?) pointed me to your patches
(and CC'd the list) for exactly that reason:
