The author sent me an updated driver for this. I'm waiting for Linus to
put out .30 so I can resync and send more patches. I'll probably also
drop it into 2.4-ac.

I have this fixed in my tree. I have a seperate problem where the
trident drivers blow up gcc 3.1 but thats reported and a gcc issue.
Again I'll send this for .30 if its not done

Be careful with this. Its still not safe for several things (kernel FPU
using stuff for example)
