There's definitely a problem with some UDMA 33 chipsets. I'll ask SiS for 5591 chipset info RSN and look into this as soon as I find some time.

Did you "make oldconfig" on the 2.4.19-pre3-jl11 sources with the your old 2.4.18-jl11 .config or made a new config from scratch ? If so assuming you didn't modify your source trees could you send us the result of : diff <2.4.18-jl11_tree>/.config <2.4.19-pre3-jl11_tree>/.config | grep "^. CONFIG"
