I'm going to be using either a wavelanII (wi0) or a 3com (ep0)
on my laptop.  I'd like to have the rc.conf's specify how to 
configure each.  Then I'd like to have the one that is in the
machine to be configured.  In the current /etc/ether_pccard there
is $pccard_ifconfig which is used as args to ifconfig if 
$pccard_ifconfig is not NO.  But I need a different ifconfig for
each device.  So I'd like to propose fixing pccard_ether as:

                shift

+                               ifconfig ${interface} ${ifconfig_args} $*
+                       fi
+               else
+                       ifconfig $interface $pccard_ifconfig $*

        fi
 fi
This way pccard devices are initialized just like other devices
