The ECR above should have changed from 4 to 0000 0100 to (0000 0100 +
1000 0100) = 132. It looks like the write to the ECR didn't take, so may
not be a writable address and therefore not the ECR.

Did you try?:
sudo ./showport C050 C040 e

(In other words use a base address that is higher than the extended
address.)

I doubt this is an issue but, the main chip can be programmed to be one
of a few different products. Do you have all of the circuitry for the
parallel port on the PCI card? Most similar PCI cards will have the
circuits for the various modes a chip can provide, but then solder on
only the components for the selected mode. Only Mode 01 will provide a
parallel port (see page 7).
