Apparently, that belief is in error, whenit comes to this bridge,
if adding PCI_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_IO_RANGE works.

What's the basis of the assumption that the I/O range is
unsupported in the first place, and why isn't it true for this
bridge chip, if it's a valid assumption for others?

Give Alfred enough information, and a patch is bound to pop out...
