See the description at:

AFAIK, the RPM you mention is a binary of David Hinds' pcmcia-cs
package.  And yes, its confusing that theres two kernel pcmcia
implimentations.

I'm reading about them as I'm trying to get my pcmcia ehternet card to
give me two different IPs depending upon the pcmcia port that I plug it
into and, unfortunately, this doesn't appear to be easy with Red Hat's
pcmcia scripts...
