The PCMCIA documentation is a little lacking (blame me). I posted a PCMCIA
howto a couple of weeks ago
http://lists.gentoo.org/pipermail/gentoo-user/2002-March/007488.html
Basically, you probably want to unconfigure pcmcia in your kernel, install
it, and then emerge pcmcia-cs.
You shouldn't need to bother with /etc/init.d/pcmcia; the configuration
settings are in /etc/conf.d/pcmcia.
