On my NEC Versa 6030X:

mainbus0 (root)
pci0 at mainbus0 bus 0: configuration mode 1
pchb0 at pci0 dev 0 function 0
pchb0: Intel 82437MX Mobile System Controller (MTSC) (rev. 0x02)
pcib0 at pci0 dev 1 function 0
pcib0: Intel 82371MX Mobile PCI I/O IDE Xcelerator (MPIIX) (rev. 0x03)
Chips and Technologies 65550 (VGA display, revision 0x45) at pci0 dev 2 function
 0 not configured
Texas Instruments PCI1130 (CardBus bridge, revision 0x04) at pci0 dev 3 function
 0 not configured
Texas Instruments PCI1130 (CardBus bridge, revision 0x04) at pci0 dev 3 function
 1 not configured

...so, at least this one works.  But it works by emulating a pcic in
ISA space.

Does the Cirrus do that?  If not, the PCI front-end to the pcic driver
is going to have to be fixed, but that is probably going to require
some heavy changes to autoconfiguration.

FWIW, I'm hoping that the marc-pcmcia branch will be on the trunk in the
next 2 or 3 days, BTW.  (Like, _just_ in time for 1.3 cut..)
