Okay, the problem seems to be the port reset. In parport_pc.c, just
before the call to parport_announce_port, we set two control lines one by
one. If you comment out that whole lot, you should find that the
autoprobe works reliably. I'll do a proper patch tomorrow.

Does anyone have any strong objections to my removing the port reset at
initialisation? I'll make sure that tunelp can cause a reset via lp
(which I think is also broken at the moment).

Tim.
