Yeah, but it's *only* NetBSD who *thinks* it's broken. Do you want me to list
again the long row of OSes who have no problem with that?

And what is PCMCIA doing here once you say pcmcia != cardbus ?!
I thought that CardBus is _over_ PCMCIA, but the detection order is
reverded?!

And again, the NetBSD-4 line is seeing the same CardBus correctly... so
please, don't tell me that _my_ hardware is wrong, when only NetBSD 3.1 can't
see it :-((
