Per CVS diff:
http://cvs.archlinux.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/kernels/kernel26/config.x86_64.diff?r1=text&tr1=1.11&r2=text&tr2=1.12&diff_format=h

options in last version of config.x86_64 parport related optiond was setted to Y:
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_FIFO=y
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO=y

Currently I have no time for testing... :(
