pd6729 infinite eventloop

My pd6729.c file should be sufficiently patched up to that of 
2.6.10-mm3.
So, I'm using Debian 2.6.10 sources with pd6729.c patched up to mm3 
level.
I recompiled pd6729 with irq_mode=0.  The problem still occurs, only the
rate of the "infinite eventloop IRQ7" message is quite a bit slower.  
Nevertheless
its still a frozen system.
