It's CardBus II/III, 32-bit, but anyway, CardBus _is_ a form of PCMCIA too!
(just a newer one, and some product datasheets list it this way: "PCMCIA Type
II/III 32-bit Cardbus")

When I am networkless and I can't add anything to the system, what am I
supposed to do?! I was expecting from the default kernel to be... err... more
generic, not to break things.

My question was: is the support for the Texas Instruments PCI1420 really
broken in the default NetBSD kernel?!

I was expecting NetBSD to support _more_ that other *BSDs, not less :-((
