Hmmm.  If this is true, and it's intended *solely* as a QnD,
then why net let him have his own isa_dmastatus()?  It doesn't
hurt anything, and it's not something that will live on in
infamy.  I think maybe this whole thing got blown out of proportion
in the posting by... (uh-oh 8-)) complaining about the seperate
isa_dmastatus().

The issue of PnP (admittedly, he didn't raise that one in this
particular case, so it's kind of off-topic) is still hotly
debateable, I suppose (not something I'm going to debate late
on Sunday, though...).
