    I've got an Ancot SCSI analizer hooked up between a 200Mhz Pentium Pro /w a 2940UW and a 
fast-20 (Ultra) wide target. I'm running FreeBSD 3.0-970209-SNAP kernel with AHC_TAGENABLE option
set in the config. I get tag queue messages fine, try as I may, I *never* see overlapped scsi
commands. In fact, the commands all had a queue tag of 0. What gives? I would think that a PP200 
could crank cdbs fast 'nuff to get multiple commands outstanding. We do it all the time with a dec 
alpha (with dec's os/hardware).
