What kind of panics?  As you might expect, the driver works for me.  I'd
be most surprised if the lack of the interrupt mask bits was having any
effect.

Incidentally, the new ea/eb drivers seem a bit dodgy when dealing with
80C04s (as found on EtherBs, usually).  I'm pursuing the bugs with a big
mallet as I find time.
