Hmm. Okay, good to know. I guess that's why my old kernel doesn't have
problems, even though it doesn't have module support -- it was compiled w/ module
support at one time, so still has the directory structure.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it useful, but it did more stuff afterwards.
With the kernel built as module-capable and the PCMCIA NE2000 driver built as a
module, cardctl ident manages to identify both of my cards. Perhaps it was just
getting hung up on the lack of a module directory.
However, inserting either card provides the helpful prompt "RequestIRQ: Resource
in use". I know I've seen this message before, but don't remember what I did
about it. :(
