Yes, I have CONFIG_ISAPNP=y.  Searching the archive,
I found a fix for "2.5.39 isapnp causes drivers/base/core.c:attach() oops"
here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=103331915631837&w=2
but looking at the 2.5.40 tree at linus.bkbits.net, I see that a slightly
different fix went into 2.5.40.  I applied the patch for v1.14 of isapnp.c,
and here is the diff for that file:

I recompiled, and got a new and different oops on boot.
Since I had to write this down, I just saved what I thought
was the most pertinent.

I haven't been able to get a patch-2.5.40.gz yet, so if this is fixed 
in the full 2.5.40 release, my apologies for all this noise.
