Duh! Who would have thought that "IrDA" in the BIOS configuration
would mean SIR? Indeed, changing it to FIR gives me my SMC chipset :-)
I have also finished porting the findchip utility. You can find it
attached. It works fine(*) on my -stable machine, but I would like
someone to try it out on a -current box, just to be sure.
I am going to try to port the rest of the utilities, but I would be more
than happy to test the smc driver for you, when you have it ready.

(*): except from the gtk-based 'gfindchip' that coredumps when I
select quit from the menu. As a workaround use the provided
perl script that has gtk bindings and works flawlessly.
