Hard to tell (except that it /should/ work), the linux firewire drivers
suck and at the end of 2005 their hotplug support is still terrible.

Please get a clean events log of a plug event. It's better if you do it
just after a reboot when no firewire devices were plugged yet.
Uncomment logger.agent in hotplug.rules and then:

EVENTS_LOG='/dev/hotplug.log' >> /etc/default/hotplug


I highly suspect a problem with my workaround for kernel brokeness:

SUBSYSTEM=="ieee1394",  ENV{MODALIAS}!="?*", \
        IMPORT{program}="/lib/hotplug/modalias_ieee1394"

Please also report the output of:

grep ieee1394: /lib/modules/2.6.13/modules.alias

and:

modinfo $(find /lib/modules/2.6.13/ -name sbp2.ko)
