Actually this is a bug in the aic7xxx driver

That's interesting.  I think this is a bug in the aic7xxx driver,
because it is reserving a smaller IO port window than the card uses.
And the PCMCIA IO port probe stomps on the unprotected bit.  (I bet if
you exclude just 0x1400-0x14ff and 0x1800-0x18ff, that will also work;
it should also work if you rebuild PCMCIA with "PnP BIOS support"
turned on)
