Thanks for the reply!

i2c_smbus_read_word_data() implies (to me, anyway) a required 
data/command in the transaction.  Some of the devices with which we deal 
apparently cannot tolerate this extra 8 bits on the bus when attempting 
to read a word from them.  The bus analyzer also indicates those extra 
bits are present.  I'm doing my work through the dev interface, and our 
functionality matrix seems to indicate that I cannot use pure I2C.  Any 
thoughts or insight?  Thanks very much!
