I'm pretty sure that it is the octal UART, but it isn't being recognised 
properly.  To test this theory, I tried with (a) no cards at all, and (b) 
just the MiniPCI adapter (no serial card) -- nothing else appears at 01:04.0 
(output of lspci attached).

Yes that's right.

I'd already looked for this, I'm certain I have the jumpers right (I tried 
intentionally setting them incorrectly, the failure mode is different).
