And I apologise for the omission.  You're right, they do have a
solution and it's something I should have remembered to mention them
when I sent my posting.  Thinking back, I do remember seeing several
announcements about this and my face is now a little red.

Nonetheless, I do still think that there's room for cooperative effort
in expanding this list of supported cards, especially in the
non-proprietary arena (I don't know what' ET's policy is, but I
haven't seen any sort of T1 speed sync-serial driver comitted to the
public source tree and would sort of like to see *something* that the
developers can mutually work to evolve since I'm sure there's room for
improvement!).
