Actually, hotplug isn't that bad - it's either a bunch of trivial
shell scripts which can be written to suit the application in mind,
or its one of the full-blown hotplug packages.

It's the udev side I'm now worried about given what's been said
above - I'm completely udev free and I suspect I'm not the only one
who wants to stay that way.  I also suspect that folk want to be udev
free but want PCMCIA to work.
