Well, why the quirk wasn't helping is fairly obvious -- but given that I 
definitely didn't need anything like this on .25 I wonder why PnPACPI is 
all of a sudden claiming those 4 ports in the first place.

As in, this works for me and might not be bogus due to the symmetry and 
all but still needs some head scratching. In any case, I do definitely 
need something for .26...

I'll go recompile .25 onto here and see if's just my BIOS being funny or 
something to do with the kernel.
