Yup, I've tried exactly this for pcmcia wireless and
bridge, and tweaked the sleep value.  The 'auto br0' 
struck me as wrong since it should be omitted for eth 
when using pcmcia.  However, this only results in no
br0 device.

There is one other step I have performed.  I verified
both the ethernet and wireless cards work before 
enabling bridge.  In fact, I've spent most of this
evening with a fresh copy of bering-rc3 repeating the 
process with the same results.  

[ stuff about specifics snipped ]

There is maybe another bit of significance with my case.
The hardware I'm using this on is fairly archaic.  The
laptop is an old 486-75, and the wireless card is the
WebGear Aviator2.4.  But seeing as how everything works
fine before enabling bridge, I can't believe this is an
issue.

I don't mean to whine on and on since I've been 
constantly amazed at what I've been able to apply leaf
to.
