As I remember it (and as Colin said), you need pcmciautils for 16-bit PCMCIA cards. I actually run wheezy on an old laptop which does support 16-bit cards (it runs Gnome in fallback mode). I don't use any 16-bit cards, though. Perhaps the ideal solution would be to only install pcmciautils in d-i if the system really does have PCMCIA/Cardbus hardware. It should be possible to check via /sys.
