I may have an answer to my own question.  Looking around the Win95 OEM
Release 2 site
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pr/win95osr.htm
I came across, under Hardware Support, Power Management Improvements:

                 Support for Advanced Power
                 Management (APM) 1.2 BIOS,
                 wake-on-ring for modems, multi-battery
                 PC's, drive spin down, and powering
                 down of inactive PCMCIA modems.

The last item "powering down of inactive PCMCIA modems" is what I was
looking for.  This is not available as a separate download.  I will post
when it is...
