Thanks to Kent Hamilton for providing an answer.  This controller has a 
AIC-7895 chipset.

The next question I have is, is there a more recent version of the CAM 
SCSI patches for -stable that would cleanly install on a current copy 
of -stable?

Assuming that the CAM code turns out to be quite stable, when does the 
core team think it might be incorporated into the -stable CVS tree?

Once I get the CAM code merged (patched) into my source tree, how would 
I go about building a new boot.flp?  I may even consider building a 
"release" and cutting my own CDROM here at work.  What are the steps I 
would need to do to get this done?
