Oh; cardmgr does expect to find a module directory. If you just
create an empty one, that will get you past that check.

I don't think that will be so useful. A better thing to try is to
disable PCMCIA in the kernel and recompile the PCMCIA package that
way, which will build a set of modules from the PCMCIA source tree
instead of the kernel tree. That will let you compare the in-kernel
PCMCIA with the out-of-kernel PCMCIA.
