That's rather cryptic.  It's probably because the module is called
ixj_pcmcia but the PCMCIA name is ixj_cs.

You'll need:

device "ixj_cs"
	class <whatever> module "ixj_pcmcia"

card <whatever>
	version <whatever>/manfid <whatever>
	bind "ixj_cs"

and not:

device "ixj_pcmcia"
	class <whatever> module "ixj_pcmcia"

card <whatever>
	version <whatever>/manfid <whatever>
	bind "ixj_pcmcia"

in your PCMCIA configuration files.

Looking at this compile command, it seems that they haven't read the
"how to build modules outside the kernel tree" documentation which
can be found in the kernel tree at:
