Kevin,

I was hoping it would be that simple, but it doesn't seem to be.  I 
added the line to rc.conf, but it didn't change the boot sequence 
messages one iota.  Here's the relevant section of my rc.conf:

pccard_enable="YES"
pccard_ifconfig="inet 192.168.1.2  netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="192.168.1.254"
pccard_mem="DEFAULT"
pccardd_flags="z"

This really wouldn't be an issue if I didn't plan to use daemons that 
expect to have a route available when they start up.
