I got my device yesterday and after a small plugfest I can confirm
that only one end of the device enumerates when connected to an ICH7
EHCI driven by 2.6.19.

The device is in fact not self-powered.

My theory is that the same set of descriptors are used for both ends,
but one end has been locked to address 127 in order to work with
simpler debug port drivers that assume it will be there.

I guess that the self-powered error is also to simplify life for
debug port drivers. IIRC most if not all USB power management
concerns are noops for debug ports.
