The 4.3BSD DMF driver relies on an undocumented feature of the DEC
DMF32.  As it is undocumented, Emulex did not implement it.  Fixes
have been posted in the past; ask your 4.3BSD neighbors for a copy.
Perhaps even Emulex have the fix (if not, send it to them and let
them tell their customers---why not?, they do it for VMS).
