I gave 2.4.21-pre4-ac2 a spin.
IDE seems to be shaping up, the only problem I ran into with
it is about the darn PDC20268 -- again. It seems to work nicely
but misdetects the max transfer rate of the only drive on the
secondary channel and then won't allow me to set UDMA > 2 on it
(I get no error msg but there's no change).
The ideX=ata66 switch doesn't seem to do anything any more.
(On 2.4.{19,20} if I omit "ide2=ata66 ide3=ata66", I get
the UDMA <= 2 restriction on *both* channels of the PDC.)
hdparm -Iv of the affected drive (from 2.4.20):
