I've posted such a patch to debian-powerpc when one user there had this
problem. That was before I learned booting with yaboot avoids the problem.
If the resource conflict also happens on oldworld machines, I'd still
prefer some suggestions to foolproof the patch (as in: how can I figure
out if a region has been allocated by another card? What bits from the
config registers should I look at?).

I have a precompiled benh Kernel at penguinppc.org/~olaf with Benhs current
kerneltree, your patch is still needed - otherwise *kaboom*

No surprise there. But I don't consider the patch clean enough for
inclusion with the 2.2 kernels, at least not without safeguarding that the
guessed PCI region isn't occupied.
