Pcmcia problem

It seems pcmcia doesn't work with the latest kernels anymore. It was fine
with 2.1.117. 118 didn't compile and beginning with 2.1.119 I get Oopses all
over the place when using it.

I recently upgraded to pcmcia 3.0.5 to no avail. I currently have no card
plugged in so I only see Oopses hwen trying to stop pcmcia support.

Here's what I get:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000048
current->tss.cr3 = 00101000, %cr3 = 00101000

Is this a pcmcia problem, or a kernel one?
