 The patch works on this system.
 
 I should perhaps enter this as a different PR, but wiconfig doesn't
 work on this system:
 
     $ sudo wiconfig ath0
     NIC serial number:                      [  ]
     Station name:                           [  ]
     SSID for IBSS creation:                 [  ]
     Current netname (SSID):                 [  ]
     Desired netname (SSID):                 [  ]
     Segmentation fault (core dumped)
 
 Using gdb on a debug version of wiconfig:
 
     (gdb) bt
     #0  0x08049798 in wi_printhex (wreq=0xbfbfdab0) at wiconfig.c:545
     #1  0x08049a3c in wi_dumpinfo (iface=0xbfbfe0b3 "ath0") at wiconfig.c:674
     #2  0x0804a127 in main (argc=2, argv=0xbfbfdf70) at wiconfig.c:885
     #3  0x080489c6 in ___start ()
     (gdb) print *wreq
     $2 = {
       wi_len = 20480, 
       wi_type = 49686, 
       wi_val =     {0 <repeats 512 times>}
     }
     (gdb) up
     #1  0x08049a3c in wi_dumpinfo (iface=0xbfbfe0b3 "ath0") at wiconfig.c:674
     674                             wi_printhex(&wreq);
     (gdb) p w[i]
     $3 = {
       wi_type = 64834, 
       wi_code = 4, 
       wi_label = 0x804a5e4 "Current BSSID:\t\t\t\t", 
       wi_opt = 0, 
       wi_desc = 0x0, 
       wi_optval = 0x0
     }
     (gdb) exit
 
 That len looks suspicious for a mac address :-)  I tried looking
 to see whether this was caused by similar mem-type issues, but
 wasn't able to progress far due to my unfortunately limited knowledge
 of kernel development.
 
 Brian.
