Honestly, a module-load test on real hardware can give us some useful 
information, even if it's not connected to anything.

My changes are primarily in the probe-the-hardware area, so successfully 
making it past that new code would indeed be a useful data point.

Check out the kernel found in 'isdn-pci' branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/misc-2.6.git

Any help is certainly appreciated!
