Is there any instrumentation in the mac-specific code?

I'm afraid it didn't help.

I don't know which flags do what, but I turned these on, anyway:
#define DEBUG_ESP
#define DEBUG_ESP_DISCONNECT
#define DEBUG_ESP_PHASES
Now I get this:

Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
In interrupt handler - not syncing
Last night, before I got your patch, I found that I can avoid any SCSI
problems, as long as the root filesystem is mounted read-only. I got past
the boot failure by powering up the root disk a second or two after
telling the bootloader to "boot now". For the test above, I did not do
that. I always pass "ro" on the kernel command line.
The 2.6.8.1 kernel worked fine for several hours of uptime, but as soon as
I did "mount -o remount,rw /", it was all over, and the following was
logged,
esp0: Aborting command
esp0: dumping state
esp0: SW [sreg<07> sstep<04> ireg<08>]
esp0: HW reread [sreg<07> sstep<84> ireg<10>]

Hope this helps... let me know if I should run any other tests.
