I just noticed that that Gutsy isn't using the new libata pata_hpt37x
drivers for the 37x series of controllers. It's still using the legacy
IDE drivers at this point, which is probably a good thing for now.
There is still a driver bug, but it's less severe than I originally
thought, and it's not due to a bug in the pata_hpt37x driver, since it's
not even being used, but a different bug in the IDE driver. It hangs
on "HPT374: too many IDE interfaces, no room in table" when I boot off
the live CD, but I tried again and noticed that if I wait a really long
time, it gets it gets past the error and manages to boot. I was able to
install to HD, where is still gets the error on every boot, but doesn't
hang up for long and just continues on and seems to work. I'm going to
invalidate this bug report and re-report it more accurately.
