Yes. I did the original port of the NetBSD support for these machines.
The SCSI controller was supported before CAM, but I lost access to
DEC3000/x boxes shortly before CAM-day & nobody ever picked it up.

The esp.c files are still languishing in our source tree
(sys/alpha/tc/esp*) if you care port them to CAM.  It might be
preferable to integrate TC support into the existing PCI amd.c driver,
which is already CAMified.

Cheers,

Drew
