We ran point-to-point with FCP-attached devices for awhile on RHEL 5
(kernel 2.6.18) on EMC DMX3 hardware.  No problem.  Never got that
error.

Yup.  We got that same error on a SLES9 GA system.  We switched to a
SLES9 SP3 system and the FCP driver worked there.  So it looks like PtP
FCP support is a fairly recent addition.  Haven't tried it with RHEL
yet.
