 Hmm, does such hardware already exist?  I don't think it's reasonable to
make some code available to a user in a configuration that will never make
use of it.  E.g. a plain TURBOchannel box (or one with no I/O bus) won't
ever see a native ATA device (SCSI to ATA bridges obviously don't count). 
I'll check if the code builds at all.
