My PCMCIA stopped working [solved]

I tried to use some PCMCIA cards in my laptop today and realized that my PCMCIA stopped working!  Here's what hwd -e says about my cardbus slot:

104c:8039 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments module: yenta_cardbus 
          PCIxx12 Cardbus Controller

lspcmcia with any card I have plugged in:

[root@pwn dev]# lspcmcia
Socket 0 Bridge:       [yenta_cardbus]     (bus ID: 0000:04:09.0)

lsmod | grep yenta, seems like the PCMCIA stuff is loaded:

[root@pwn dev]# lsmod | grep yenta
yenta_socket           27660  1 
rsrc_nonstatic         13312  1 yenta_socket
pcmcia_core            39716  2 yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic

What should I do?

Run pacman -Syu. The fixed pcmciautils 015-2 package went out today.
