This afternoon I retested. Here's a better description of the problem. 
My Netgear FA511 Card is not reinitialized after a suspend/resume cycle. 
I had thought that the problem was a cardbus issue but it only affects 
this one card. Some interesting information about this card: It's a 
32bit cardbus adapter served by the dc driver. Plugging in a Netgear 
FA411 16 bit PCMCIA card after a suspend/resume works as expected. I 
will try to down the interface and kldunload the dc driver before 
shutdown to see if that helps.
