Have you tried SourcePuller? http://sourceforge.net/projects/sourcepuller/  
It's the notorious Tridge-designed BK client.  It doesn't have the SCM 
functionality but should perhaps be sufficient to get the latest source out 
of BK?

Or there's the BK open source client http://www.bitmover.com/bk-client.shar - 
this was originally under the "No Whiners License" but I think it's actually 
BSD licensed, or something similar.

Anyhow, I stuck a tarball of the latest and greatest BK tree at:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~maw48/xen-devel-20050506-maw.bk.tar.bz2

It should contain the latest patches - maybe it will help.

Xen doesn't let Linux see behind Cardbus bridges, so that wouldn't work.  The 
new PCI / ACPI patches may support it, although I haven't tried.
