Thanks for the suggestion, Erik.

I commented out

        hint.ppc.0.at="isa"
        hint.ppc.0.irq="7"

from /boot/device.hints and that got rid of 

        ppc0: parallel port not found.
        ppc0: <Parallel port> failed to probe at irq 7 on isa0

from dmesg, but unfortunately nothing else changed.
