Um, yes it is prism, but the driver recognizes it fine (I think).

from dmesg:
wi0: <PRISM2STA PCI WaveLAN/IEEE 802.11> port 
0xc400-0xc43f,0xc000-0xc07f mem 0xec003000-0xec003fff irq 10 at device 
10.0 on pci0
wi0: Ethernet address: 00:e0:29:91:bd:ab

from ifconfig -a
wi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
         inet 10.0.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
         inet6 fe80::2e0:29ff:fe91:bdab%wi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
         ether 00:e0:29:91:bd:ab
         media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect
         status: no carrier

Again, it's not recognized as a pccard (pcic). My PCI card has that 
fancy PLX chip which makes wi recognized directly on the pci bus.

Ross Finlayson (it seems) also had a similar problem, and to fix it he 
updated his WaveLAN card's firmware. But my card is an SMC. I'll try to 
see if there exists a firmware update for my card...
