64-bit PCI slots on the Sibyte evaluation boards are implemented using a
Hypertransport-to-PCI bridge.  Hypertransport however uses a separate port
address space from the native 32-bit PCI slots that port x on 32-bit PCI is
different from port x on the Hypertransport.  Memory mapped I/O is not affected
by the issue.

The in/out functions don't know which of the busses / port address spaces
they're operating on so they're always using the first bus that is the 32-bit
PCI bus.  Note that the new style API with iomap() / ioreadX() / iowriteX() is
not affected by this problem.

Would that explain the bug?
