I have some more good to MFC tonight or this weekend (just got RE approval). if_wi_pccard.c might be a better thing to look at for something that supports both oldcard and newcard in a sane way. Maybe if you provided more details on the hardware, I could provide more detailed answers, privately if necessary.
