After talking with Peter Wemm and others at FreeBSD Con, I've reached the point where I can commit the pccard code that supports sio. It also supports ep and should shortly support ed. Card ejection (including suspend) doesn't work, which I'll try to fix at some point, but I might not get around to fixing that before new pccard work begins. I think it would be easy to mostly fix (like the old code mostly worked) with more thought on how to do this (see -arch for a message related tot his problem). Unit numbers may have changed on people, as they are now ignored from pccardd. Also, some people may need to modify their config files to have devices continue to work (this is true if you have device ep0 at isa? .... and may be true for ed0 as well). See PCCARD for details, and use its methods if it should differ from LINT or GENERIC (and report the differences to me). These changes are quite extensive and potentially disruptive, so bear that in mind when making your upgrade decision. Read -current or -mobile for problem reports. Your milage may vary. My profuse appologies for not having this three days ago. It turned out to be a more extensive rewrite of the old pccard code than I had planned on doing.
