No.  However, I've seen the following problems with it on my system
here:
	o Tapes don't detect end of media
	o Sometimes tape actions cause system panics
	o heavy (or sometimes light) disk I/O causes panics
	o cdrom I/O usually works, but sometimes causes panics
	o swapping to a disk on a aic controller panics quickly

So I only use the aic controller that I have for light cdrom activity
and it seems to be fine with that.

I have an adaptech 1522A (6360 based), which works a lot better than
the 1522 that I have as well.  The 1522 (6250? based) I have usually
probes, but not much else.
