I doubt seriously this is the case.  Otherwise our isa bridge code
would attach another isa bus there and he'd not have a problem.

actually, there were and are a lot of localbus (aka ISA) to PCI
bridges out there.  These are PCI devices, and should be treated as
such.  It is extremely rare for a full-fledged PCI to ISA bridge to be
on an add-in card that isn't a specialized hunk of hardware.
Something as common as a sound card almost certainly doesn't do this.

That makes the rest of your questions irrelevant....
