Don't know about PCMCIA, but in my case (turned out I already had the packet filter included in) what did the trick was setting: ifconfig_ed0="DHCP" defaultrouter="NO" in rc.conf. Whilest booting you see it configuring the interfaces and then querying the DHCP server for the rest. If PCMCIA is different then I can only imagine that's because those infterfaces get configured later in the resource configuration process. Maybe you can move it up a bit?
