Thats a barrier to real PATA IDE I guess then. We see a lot of cable errors and speed change downs and not all are caused by misdetecting 80wire cables. The current IDE layer does speed changes synchronously outside the state machine which makes a nasty mess when your error handling interrupt state wants to speed change.
