I just tried 3.4-STABLE here on an older machine with an 810 card. With

controller	ncr0
controller	sym0

in the kernel, it attaches ncr0 and everything works normally:

ncr0: <ncr 53c810 fast10 scsi> rev 0x02 int a irq 10 on pci0.17.0
...
da0 at ncr0 bus 0 target 2 lun 0
da0: <IBM DCAS-34330 S61A> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device 
da0: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 8)
da0: 4134MB (8467200 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 527C)

As a check, I removed the ncr0 line, leaving only the sym driver in the
kernel. The machine then panics when booting, as expected (nowhere to
mount root from).

Running a buildworld now, with both drivers in the kernel.
