5.x has a new PCMCIA structure - NEWCARD.  This adds Cardbus support
and I think reworked the pcmcia device architecture quite a bit.
OLDCARD is a kernel conf file that replaces the new devices with the
device structure out of 4.x.
Basically you need to recompile the kernel as per the handbook but use
OLDCARD in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf as your starting point.
