Tested it, and it makes either type of card work for me on
NetBSD-1.5.1 branch. Could you apply this trivial fix to the branch or
should I send-pr it still?

I doubt this is an an-driver issue as I cannot see any relevænt
changes there in the past few weeks. I think this is beyond my
expertise to dig into any further and I'm happy with it running on
1.5, but I'll be more than happy to test possible fixes send to me.
Anybody else having similar problems? Either with other PCMCIA or
cardbus cards? Should I send-pr this, even though I really do not have
much more to say about it?

Finally, I'm trying to get the an card to work on 1.5.1/alpha for
my Multia. The an-driver itself seems ok sofar, but PCMCIA interrupts
still do not work properly; changing IST_EDGE into IST_LEVEL in the
pcic-ic code helped. It got rid of the stray interrupts. With this
in my kernel config:

pcic*   at      isa? port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000 iosiz 0x4000 flags 1
options PCIC_ISA_ALLOC_IOBASE=0x300
options PCIC_ISA_ALLOC_IOSIZE=0x0ff
options PCIC_ISA_INTR_ALLOC_MASK=0x4000

both the an card and ep PCMCIA cards configure properly and get
irq 14 assigned at ifconfig up. I manage to send out 4 ICMP request
packets before a `an: device timeout', but that's all sofar; no
further packets get out, nor any ever get it. pinging over the ep
interface doesn't get me anything either.

I'll play with interrupt settings (and cvsweb) a bit more, and see if
I can get better results. But, of course, suggestions from
better-informed people are always welcome :).
