According to the Supported Hardware list entry here
  http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/modules/bus.php#PCI%2dVME%20%28Linux%29
the CLS contact for the Struck SIS3100 driver is Russ Berg.  I may have a copy 
of the code somewhere myself but it's not in the obvious places and it would 
be out of date by now anyway.

I think the most important thing is to ensure that the new version is fully 
pluggable at run-time.  I like the idea of separating the buses into separate 
headers.
