I'm not clear on which cards are not recognized.  In the -mm dmesg
log you posted, sk98lin found a card:

    Linux version 2.6.12-rc2-mm2-md1 (root@ioGL64NX) (gcc-Version 3.4.3 20041125 (Gentoo Linux 3.4.3-r1, ssp-3.4.3-0, pie-8.7.7)) #2 SMP PREEMPT
    ...
    sk98lin: Network Device Driver v8.15.1.3
    (C)Copyright 1999-2005 Marvell(R).
    ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 201
    PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:02:00.0 to 64
    eth0: Marvell Yukon 88E8053 Gigabit Ethernet Controller
          PrefPort:A  RlmtMode:Check Link State

So what do you mean by "not recognized"?  I assumed you meant that
the card just didn't work.

I noticed in some lspci output the IRQ was reported as 7, not
the 201 above.  So that also makes me suspicious of PCI-Express
IRQ routing gone bad.

Please don't trim the to/cc list; I added Tom because he knows
about PCI Express.
