Really?  My IDE CDROM is working fine on the second controller.  Here
is my dmesg for it:
.
.
.
wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa
wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): <WDC AC31000H>
wd0: 1033MB (2116800 sectors), 2100 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S
wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa
wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): <TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-5302TA/1095>, removable, intr, iordy
wcd0: 689Kb/sec, 256Kb cache, audio play, 255 volume levels, ejectable tray
wcd0: 120mm data disc loaded, unlocked
.
.
.

It didn't work "out-of-the-box" though.  I had to compile a custom
kernel with the wd2 and wd3 disks commented out or it would try
to recognize my CDROM as a 0MB disk.
