Although, the problem can be fixed by using isa(4) instead of pci(4)
in the kernel config, the problem itself doesn't look strictly i386.
I'd submit a kern bug.

It's in pcmcia(4) (which is referenced by pcic(4)) and also in options(4),
at least in -current that is. If it's a FAQ it should be in the FAQs. ;-)
If it's just one of the other trillion problems you can stumble upon
but find a solution by reading all relevant manpages or with google,
then it's probably not a very good idea to put it into the FAQ because
FAQs don't scale well that way.
