"devinfo -rv" from both 7 and 8, and verbose dmesg from both (best on
Pastebin or in a PR, not to the mailing list!) will probably be useful
in determining what's up.

It would also be worth removing any hints for the floppy drive
from /boot/device.hints (assuming mergemaster didn't do this for you)
and seeing if that makes a difference.
