Some of it I like, and others I don't.

The usage really is 'pccardc enabled', not 'enabler', so this should
stay, or at least converted to use argv[0] to be consistent with
the other changes.

However, I'm not sure why we are changing the output.  It seems
gratiutious.

Again, we use warn one place, and then err.  Any chance of keeping it
consistent in all places.
