According to the patch, if icw3 == 4 && !(eclr & 4), then behaviour will change. With the standard configuration, if two pci interrupts hit at once, then before the patch irr.2 will be clear, and afterwards set. So we do have a behavioural change. Is the rest of the code masking this change under the standard configuration? -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function
