Exactly what I needed.  It looks like the driver is matching _any_ card
passed to it... I should be glad more people haven't hit this yet :-(

The attached patch should fix the problem - could you try building a new
kernel with this patch and see if it works for you?  ie:
	save the patch somewhere
	# cd /sys/dev/xe
	# patch < /tmp/if_xe_pccard.patch (or wherever you saved it)
	build/install/boot a new kernel as usual

If you try inserting the Aironet with hw.xe.debug=2 again, you should get
a lot of repetitions of "xe0: pccard_product_match", then nothing else
from the xe driver.  The right driver should then come along and claim the
card.

Cheers,

	Scott
