Yes.  I've not had the head space to go after this set of problems.
I've been trying to finalize some other pccard/cardbus changes in
head/my p4 tree so I can get them into 6.0.  After that, I plan on
attacking cbb issues.  Sorry for the delay.

After looking at your traceback again, I don't think that there's a
cbb problem in there that's affecting you (the interrupt storm is a
problem, and should be fixed, but it clearly isn't keeping you from
probing/attaching/powering up).
