I'm willing to help get this fixed. I'm happy working inside kernels and drivers
but will need some guidance to know where to focus to track this down.

ACPI, most likely.

The obvious problem is solve is why are no interrupts being received by
the tg3.c code.

Which kernel should I use to debug this? 2.6.17 latest RC?
Which debug options do you suggest I turn on to get closer to the problem?
What information should I collect?

A git-bisect search would be a suitable way of finding out where it broke.

But then, we don't know if this machine has _ever_ worked with IO-APIC's
enabled, do we?
From the point of view of APIC its not a regression. Isn't the way forward to find out why it does not work now as there is no old code that did work to compare to?
