I'm keeping this cc'd to the list; there's every chance that this
information is useful to other people as well.

OK. You still haven't identified the PCIC on this board; is it
integrated into the SC400, or is it a separate part? If the latter,
what is it? Do you have datasheets for it?

It sounds like this is indicative of a pretty major problem; if pccardc
can't read the CIS information, pccardd (which uses the same code) is
not going to be able to determine what the card is.
First step is to identify the pcic and work out what's not working.
