Sorry again for the confusion.  I am trying a *different* motherboard 
(INTEL DX58SO) and drive now with your 0629 patch as well as the diff below.

Without the diff, I was getting a steady stream of

ahcich0: ALL SLOTS BUSY!
ahcich0: ALL SLOTS BUSY!

With the above diff, all seems to work well.

Read/Write speed looks good with a more modern disk as well

The eSata port does not work, but it never did under the old driver 
either. I think it has a separate controller ?  At the BIOS boot up 
time, it shows some Marvell controller talking to the eSata attached 
drive, and pciconf does show a separate ATA controller
