Correct.
There was PCMCIA code in the kernel until version ~2.4.0-test5 at which time
it broke. Since then no-one has fixed it. I have briefly discussed this
with the PCMCIA upstream maintainer who says that he is not involved in work
to get PCMCIA working in 2.4.0-test* kernels again. If you only use CardBus
then you can skip the pcmcia-modules and pcmcia-source packages, otherwise
you need them.
pcmcia-cs is always needed, it has the programs that detect insertion/removal
of cards etc.
