Armin,
It works for me:

This last command is from sg_utils and it sends actual
INQUIRY commands rather than relying on data held in
the midlayer. This demonstrates the devices are responding.

Run on a AMD K6-2 500MHz machine with 2 advansys adapters.
Could you retest. If it continues to fail then it may be
a problem with the new aic7xxx driver. You also have the
option of building with the "old" (i.e. former) aic7xxx
driver.
