Indeed -- all the CE3-based cards (the PCMCIA 10/100 Ethernet models, with
or without modems, RealPort or otherwise) should work fine.  There are
several problems with the older CE2 hardware (including the CEM28 and
CEM33).  I put out some patches on freebsd-mobile late last year that were
supposed to fix some of these... if you've got one of these cards then
please try them out and let me know if they do any good -- I only have CE3
cards to test on so I have no idea if the CE2 stuff works until people
complain about it :-)

Of course none of this helps Mr. Horn's non-working CE3, although that
looks like a pccardd rather than if_xe issue.  Lutz, have you tried
changing the machdep.pccard.pcic_irq sysctl variable (man loader for
details).  You have to set this at boot time; no guarantees, but it might
have some effect on your problem.
