ThinkPad 380ED - PC Card controller not supported in FreeBSd 7.0?

I have an old IBM ThinkPad 380ED[1] on which I run
FreeBSD[2].
FreeBSD 4.11 worls great, as long as I enable pccard and
configure it
correctly.
So I tried FreeBSd 7.0-release, but it seems that the PC
Card
controller (or bridge or whatever) isn't detected. from
'pciconf -lv':
none1pci0:0:19:0: class=0x060500 card=0x00000000
chip=0x11001013 rev=0x07 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Cirrus Logic'
device = 'CL-PD6729 PCI-to-PC Card host adapter'
class = bridge
subclass = PCI-PCMCIA

Under FreeBSD 4.11 this is detected as:
pcic0pci0:19:0: class=0x060500 card=0x00000000
chip=0x11001013 rev=0x07 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Cirrus Logic'
device = 'CL-PD6729 PCI-to-PC Card host adapter'
class = bridge
subclass = PCI-PCMCIA

And the man page for pcic(4) [3] under 4.11 documents it as
supported.
The same man page for 7.0 is a bit confusing: [4]. It says
that this is supported, 
but in the bugs section says that it doesnt work at all.
pcic doesn't work at all in 7.0?

More info as well as normal and verbose dmesgoutputs in
[2].
Any hints on getting this oldie working?
