In a kernel with these lines:
controller	ppbus0
device		nlpt0	at ppbus?
controller	ppc0	at isa? port? irq 7 vector ppcintr

There is data corruption for some binary data sent to the printer.  When
printing a postscript file with ghostscript, the printer will print properly
for a bit of the page, then start printing garbage.  (The printer is a
Deskjet 890C if that matters at all).

The old driver:
device          lpt0    at isa? port? tty irq 7 vector lptintr

works well.

Real Programs don't use shared text.  Otherwise, how can they use
functions for scratch space after they are finished calling them?
