I assume you are using kernels from ftp.*.kernel.org? These don't have calls
to pci_read_bridge_bases() in any of the PPC specific files.

This is fixed for at least some machines (G4?) in the BitKeeper tree. For
MVME, someone with the hardware needs to take a look, I guess.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
