But I found that the snapshot from September 5 still has the similar
issue, so I'd imagine that the driver in -CURRENT still has the problem,
though I'm speaking without knowing how much changes have been made since
the last MFC.  I need to set up a machine which can build current -CURRENT
to be sure.

Not yet, but I doubt it'll make it through to the end because of the
I/O error issue.
