microcode_ctl in FC4 doesn't get enabled if you run it on
non-Intel, or < 686.

You can get desktop PCI->PCMCIA bridge cards.
Theoretically we could grep lspci output for pcmcia
and only enable the service if we find something, but
this brings two problems.
- Docking stations. I think some older laptops only have
  PCMCIA when docked.
- If I added a PCI bridge after I did the install I'd need
  to manually enable the service. Ideally, something like kudzu/hal/whatever
  would reenable it when it discovers something new on first boot with
  the new hardware installed.

chkconfig $servicename off is somewhat cleaner.
