I believe it's supported in PCCARD emulation mode.  There are plans to
add CardBus support to FreeBSD, however the project has been quiet of 
late due partly to my being busy (and not coordinating anything) as 
well as the developers being busy.

> As a side question, why is PAO separate from FreeBSD?

The PAO group are independant developers by their own choice.  This 
independance gives them freedom to experiment and test in directions 
that FreeBSD might not readily accept.

At least one of the PAO group have commit access (hey, Tatsumi!), 
however it's not clear whether they feel blocked by us or other things.
