This one gets further than 4.0 release.  The LCD display driver does 
initialize.  It halts in the same are as all of the 3.x kernels do.  It 
attached the PCMCIA and then tries to probe wd0 and hangs.

This one failed to initialize the LCD.

I'm going to get my cross tool chain together and sync with -current and see if 
I can roll a kernel that gets at least as far as the 4-daily above.  If that 
works, then I'll start troubleshooting the flash probe issue.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
