Do you have any other PCMCIA cards?  If so do they work with FreeBSD?

Have you tried a verbose boot?  It gives slightly more data:

fwohci0: <VIA Fire II (VT6306)> port 0xa800-0xa87f mem 
0xfdffe000-0xfdffe7ff irq 18 at device 6.0 on pci1
fwohci0: Reserved 0x800 bytes for rid 0x10 type 3 at 0xfdffe000
ioapic0: routing intpin 18 (PCI IRQ 18) to lapic 0 vector 53
fwohci0: [MPSAFE]
fwohci0: [ITHREAD]
fwohci0: OHCI version 1.10 (ROM=1)
fwohci0: No. of Isochronous channels is 4.

Looking through the code:

/usr/src/sys/dev/firewire/fwohci.c: fwohci_init(struct fwohci_softc 
*sc, device_t dev)
I suspect that sc contains bogus data, in particular:
        bus_space_tag_t bst;
        bus_space_handle_t bsh;

It might be useful to add a printf in fwohci_init() to display the 
values for bst and bsh.

I don't suppose that this chipset is available in a PCI card that also
exhibits this failure?

I need to buy some cards for work and I'm more than happy to get a
couple of "broken" ones to try and fix it.

SYBA SD-LP-VT3F Low Profile PCI 1394a 3-Port (2+1) Card, VIA VT6307
Price: $8.99

SD-LP-VT3F Low Profile PCI 1394a 3-Port (2+1) Card

I don't know if this card would exhibit Martin's problem, but it would
probably exhibit PR kern/113785.

Or you could get the same make&model card that Martin has (assuming that
Martin tells us, hint hint :-)  ) and a PCMCIA-card-in-PCI-slot adapter
such as Startech PCI2PCMCIA2 or similar.

For the record, my VIA VT6307 is on a Tyan Tomcat k8e 2865 mainboard.
I've ordered from mwave.com, no problems.
