: 
: PCMCIA PCcards (16 bit) worked starting with V4.3, I think.

The ze driver was in 3.0, which supported NE-2000 pcmcia cards.  By
about 3.2 base FreeBSD supported it.  By about 3.4 or so had most of
the PAO support merged in.

: CardBus (32
: bit) cards are new in V5 and will have their first stable support if 5.3
: is declared stable in a few weeks. While the "16 bit is PCcard" and "32
: bit is CardBus" is usually true, I think that there may be some 16-bit
: CardBus cards out there, but they are not common.

No.  There are no 16-bit CardBus cards.  CardBus is pci and 32-bit by
definition.
