I have the same lines and my pcmcia works well, but if you make in /etc/init.d

./pcmcia status and it doesn't work and you make
./pcmcia start , the script doesn't find the modules,
I thik that you could look in this line: 

   PC=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/pcmcia
            fi
            KD=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/pcmcia
            if [ -d $PC ] ; then
                echo -n " modules"
                /sbin/modprobe pcmcia_core.o $CORE_OPTS
                /sbin/modprobe $PCIC.o $PCIC_OPTS
                /sbin/modprobe ds.o
            elif [ -d $KD ] ; then
                /sbin/modprobe pcmcia_core
                /sbin/modprobe $PCIC
                /sbin/modprobe ds

in the first if you try to delete .o in the modules' name.
I don't sure on this. 
First you make a backup of pcmcia file so you always can go backwards
