Somehow I think that this doesn't relate to this patch, _but_: the card
in question, a "Dynacom Data/Fax PCMCIA" with manufactor id 0x13 and card
id 0x00, might simply not need this "GLOBETROTTER" CIS file. That's required
for card "Option Wireless Technology GSM/GPRS GlobeTrotter", which is a
really different card. Therefore...

@Michal,@Barry: could you send me a "lspcmcia -vvv" output, please?

Best,
        Dominik
