Hi, 

thanks a lot for taking care for that issue. 
I just tried it out by modifying the following files from the 2.6.26-rc3 kernel:

sound/pci/Kconfig (modified by hand)
sound/pci/ice1712/ice1712.h (modified by hand)
sound/pci/ice1712/envy24ht.h (modified by hand)
sound/pci/ice1712/ice1724.c (copied from the actual Git snapshot)

I double-checked all the handmade changes, should be ok. 

Midi in via "amidi -p hw:0 -d" works now without problem, 
but when trying to write to the device, for example by "amidi -p hw:0 -s txdata.syx" 
it causes an immediate crash. 

That would not be a problem for me, but jackd probes all ports, and is unusable now.

Perhaps i forgot a patch, is the output working for you? 

My System: 
Amd64 @ 32Bit,
