Yes. I know. 

The question I really asked were:

 1) Why not used modprobe in the pcmcia_cs case?
 
 2) Why ignore the options from /etc/default/pcmcia in the
    kernel case?

And another one I should have asked was:

 3) Why does the Debian kernel build procedure put modules in
    _both_ places, fooling the script anyway?

I've gotten my system to work by deleting
/lib/modules/<version>/pcmcia and adding the options to the
modprobe command in the KD case.

But, shouldn't the Debian pcmcia script and a kernel built with
the Debian kernel-build process work together?
