Oh, looking again at the code it seems that you have to specify IRQ in
order for it not to autoprobe.  You *should* have to put
        options parport_pc io=0x378 irq=-1
in your conf.modules, but there appears to be a bug.  Patch included.
In the meantime, try "options parport_pc io=0x378 irq=-2".
Tim.
