>Description:
	I ifconfig'd wi0 down, then removed the card (a Lucent "gold"
	802.11 card).  Something wasn't happy:

	Aug  9 18:51:06 pueblo /netbsd: stray interrupt 9
	Aug  9 18:51:08 pueblo /netbsd: wi0 detached
	Aug  9 18:51:16 pueblo dhcpd: receive_packet failed on wi0: Input/output error
	Aug  9 18:51:35 pueblo /netbsd: wi0 at pcmcia0 function 0
	Aug  9 18:51:35 pueblo /netbsd:  port 0x400-0x43f
	Aug  9 18:51:36 pueblo /netbsd: wi0: address 00:60:1d:22:5a:86
	Aug  9 18:51:38 pueblo /netbsd: pcmcia0: card irq 9
	Aug  9 18:51:47 pueblo last message repeated 17795 times
	Aug  9 18:52:21 pueblo /netbsd: stray interrupt 9
	Aug  9 18:52:24 pueblo /netbsd: pcmcia0: card irq 9
	Aug  9 18:52:31 pueblo last message repeated 25536 times

	I'm not concerned about the dhcpd messages, but seeing 42K
	notices about the irq of a card that isn't plugged in...
	Reinserting the card and ifconfiging the card up didn't
	help.

	I don't know if the card was functional at that point; I had
	thought not, but I later discovered other causes for that
	problem.  I can reinvestigate if necessary.
