--- Comment #18 from Eugene Grosbein <eugen at freebsd.org> ---
This depends on devd(8) daemon being enabled/running or not running at the
moment of creation of network interface.

If devd is running (and modern FreeBSD tends to require this), it is notified
by the kernel about creation of new network interface. devd with default
/etc/devd.conf responds with invoking "/etc/pccard_ether $subsystem start", and
it processes all interfaces, not "pccard" only. The script does multiple
actions on new interface and it acts according to settings from /etc/rc.conf.
