The new version of pci.library for all Mediator models has been released today.
The pci.library ver. 11.0 includes new procedure for allocation of the PCI memory. New procedure allows faster computer start when the multi-device PCI cards are used (e.g. Spider USB controller). New pci.library gives the possibility to reallocate (free and allocate) PCI spaces from the driver for the specific PCI card. It is useful in case of PCI cards, which do not report their PCI spaces typically (e.g. some PCI processor bridges).
Information on the current versions is available in the DOWNLOADS | Mediator section. The current list of supported PCI cards is available in the Mediator Driver Guide. Information about Mediator-related sources you will find in the COMMUNITY section.

I'm curious about the reason for adding this feature.

One guess would be that they didn't want ppl use a patched pci.library. This project needed it before but not anymore after this update http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=76633 Maybe they had some evil code in there that could be triggered by that patch.
