Err, there's no need to break the kernel config.  Just have the kernel DTRT if 
both ath and pci are enabled using something like:

sys/dev/ath/if_ath_pci.c		ath pci

in sys/conf/files.

You can still have an if_ath_pci.ko module with this arrangement.  This is 
what almost all other drivers due that have multiple bus backends.
