You can't make it work with PCMCIA because it isn't a PCMCIA card. Notice
where you wrote "32-bit" above? That means it is a *CardBus* card. Sorry,
4.x doesn't play that tune.
FreeBSD-Current has some support for CardBus, but:
a) I doubt you'll find the "Dynalink L100C32" supported (yet), and
b) Current is pretty scary at the moment.
