Support for urtwn wireless was pulled up to NetBSD 6 with pull up #326 (*),
so is included in the daily builds, for example:

  http://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-6/201206281240Z/

and will be in NetBSD 6.0.  However, the RTL8191S is not explicitly mentioned
in the manual page, nor in the code, but it might be matched by one of the
other product ID's.

Thanks,
