This unfortunately doesn't appear to have any effect here.  I've verified
that cardmgr is inserting with the correct module params (at least, it logs
that it does...from 'message':
Feb  5 10:58:19 XXXXX cardmgr[1639]: executing: 'insmod
/lib/modules/2.2.1/pcmcia/tulip_cb.o options=12 debug=2'
) debug=2 yields some extra messages.  I still don't get any packets out:
eth0: Tx hung, 15 vs. 0.
eth0: Tx hung, 13 vs. 0.
eth0: Tx hung, 9 vs. 0.
...
It's on a 10BaseT half duplex network but just for kicks I tried both MII
and non-MII half and full duplex modes, with little effect.  Here's the
output now with options=12 debug=2 with 2.2.1, the February 2 pcmcia stuff
and .90k.
