Problems with pre-3.0.31-2

I recently patched this box to pre-3.0.31-2 in the hope of getting rid
of some networking problems with the 3c59x (the transmitter access
problem). I compiled in support for the HiSax module, as we just got
two Teles 16.3 cards.

I have experienced two crashes in as many days, which locked the
machine completely. The only thing that still worked was
(Ctrl|Shift)-ScrLock and the box had to be hard reset. The screen
was filled with this message both times:

Aiee: scheduling in interrupt 00123f75.

The box has two teles cards at io 0x180 and 0x280, irqs 5 and 15.
It also has a 3c590 at irq 9 and an Adaptec 3940UW at irqs 10 and 11.

I suspect it is a problem with the HiSax driver, but I'm not sure.
I'm going back to 2.0.27 without ISDN for now.
