Thanks to the generous help from this list, I now have a kernel SCSI sg
driver patch which provides for binary compatibility of 32 bit x86
applications on AMD64 kernels, when using struct sg_io_hdr with
write()/read() (the ioctl() method already worked).

The preliminary version is here (it still has some development fluff in
it):  http://volker.dnsalias.net/soft/patch/kernel-2.6.13-sg-io32.diff

I'll submit it to the maintainer too.

Thanks again,

Volker
