I got the same results as you.  It eventually worked when I copied 
the entry matching my card into /etc/pccard.conf and hard-wired the 
irq as the same as the pcic device (9 in my case):

$ cat /etc/pccard.conf
irq     9

card "Lucent Technologies" "WaveLAN/IEEE"
        config  auto "wi" 9
        insert  /etc/pccard_ether $device start
        remove  /etc/pccard_ether $device stop

With a ? instead of the 9 on the config line, I got an irq resource 
allocation failure.  Go figure !
