I think the newer HPTs present a pata_hpt*.c compatible interface, even
though the card is driving SATA devices.
Some of the cards using HPT3xx chips for SATA are PATA chips with
bridges so it may well be such a card. I really need to know what
happens if you plug a drive in.
Here is a complete dmesg from a Rocketraid 1540 (htp37x with bridges) if it helps.
(4 ports, 3 have drives and the 4th exhibits the failure David is seeing)

I still have this in a machine dedicated for testing if you need more info.
