Device drivers are handled by the underlying microkernel, i.e. GNU Mach. The currently widely-in-use GNU Mach-1.x has no support for wireless network drivers nor PCMCIA. I guess it might be possible in theory to add this support, but without quite some knowledge in both GNU Mach and Linux (as Mach uses Linux drivers via some glue code), one will not be able to get this going. It seems right now nobody has both the motivation and the skills to get this running, sorry.
