That doesn't look good.  Can you recognize card insert/remove events?
If not, stop right here and either go to polling mode, or change the
irq to one that you can really use.

: I've checked /etc/pccard.conf, and it seems fine. If I try to do:

Hmmmm, looks can be deceiving here. :-).

: The kernel panics, but I can't tell what it says because right after it
: panics, the screen becomes unreadable and the system reboots.

w/o a panic message, I can't tell you what you did wrong with any
certainty.

: I'm hoping that I've made a stupid mistake in the kernel config, and someone
: can point it out...

99% of all pccard problems are misconfigurations.  The other 1% are
really hard to track down.

: Is it really necessary to do make installworld with a 4.0 kernel?

installworld will work with a DESTDIR != /.  However, the install
tools are run out of /usr/bin, et al, and after you install the new
binaries, the new signal interface they use won't be supported by your 
kernel and things will start dying.
