I checked the sizeof() of the structure in question. It is 256 bytes, which looks right. However, the driver assumes "layout in struct is exactly the layout in hardware" while using bitfields and the like. Not that this behavior should have changed in gcc 2.96, but it is very unportable still.
fixed in gcc-2.96-74. New kernel src.rpms will buildprereq this version.
