    After poking around a bit, I found out that once again, I'm an idiot when it
    comes to hardware. :-) I found the ieee1284_get_irq_fd() function, but it
    won't work. Of course, I -assumed- the problem was in the lib.

    Several hours later, I hooked a scope up to the hardware and won't you know
    it. No interrupts! Had a lengthy chat with the hardware guys, a few vlcd(?),
    vlc(?) (whatever the heck the program the hardware with) commands later, I
    got interrupts and everything works great.
