Well, you gets what you pays for. Has anyone tried to debug it? Have you
checked the state of the oskit driver vs the latest Linux 2.2.x driver,
and tried to plop in a newer one if there is one?

It depends what you mean by sensible. Implementing a user-space driver
infrastructure is a hell of a lot more work than debugging one driver.
