Description of Problem:

Every restart of pcmcia service drops into logs a line like that:

... cardmgr[754]: config error,
     file './config.opts' line 8: no function bindings

A bit mysterious as the line in question "includes" some port ranges.

Closer investigation reveals that this error is actually in

that that last card stanza, for "Xircom RBM56G Modem", is missing
"bind" line.  As this is a modem my guess would be that this
