I have applied the following (r211136) to my local stable/8 branch and
has proven to be an improvement with no drawbacks.

As for the rest I can not vouch for unless you give me a specific patch
to test but I am willing to merge from head to my local tree at any
given point in time if you can give some revisions you would like
tested. You "I believe" made it possible for me to use this card within
a week that I had reported it ~2007-2008 so I and my card are at your
disposal.
Thank you.
