It's my fault. I was hoping that the SCSI-passthrough mis-feature would
not be missed, but I forgot that Dell was making systems that
explicitely encourage it. Fixing the driver is non-trivial, but I'll
see what I can do before 6.2. Until then, you should be able to
transplant the 6.0 sources into your 6.1 trees and rebuild.
