Just a quick followup...  I originally saw the problem when using the
vesa driver with a G400.  I have now verified 4.6.0 RC3 with the vesa
driver and a G200.  I don't have a working UnixWare system (I was never
able to get it to play well in a multi-boot environment), but this is
using XFree86's ix86 CFG1 PCI functions, not any of the OS-specific
interfaces.
