Yes, but in this and other cases (such as my Xircom RE-100), I get
these errors from dumpcis, but the card does probe and works fine. The
errors are only an annoyance, but I wonder what is causing them?

I had originally assumed that the problem was simply unknown codes,
but I wonder about their possible significance. And I have seen one
claim that adjusting the io memory mapping could make them
disappear. (I must admit that this sounds odd and the card DOES work
and the odds of a random series of values being interpreted as a CIS
tuple and not leading off to limbo is pretty unlikely.)
