The PCMCIA documentation is a little lacking (blame me).  I posted a PCMCIA
howto a couple of weeks ago

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.
