I got the latest CVS and rebuilt just to see if it was something in
the older code. After performing the modprobe, lsmod shows the
following:

Module                            Size                      Used by
at76c505_rfmd                  38596                          0
at76c503                          86144                          1

dmesg shows the following:

/tools/src/momlin/at76c503a/usbdfu.c : USB Device Firmware Upgrade
(DFU) handler v0.12beta16 loading
/tools/src/momlin/at76c503a/at76c503.c : Generic Atmel
at76c503/at76c505 routines v0.12beta16
/tools/src/momlin/at76c503a/at76c503-fw_skel.c : Atmel at76c505 (RFMD
radio) wireless LAN driver v0.12beta16 loading
drivers/usb/core/usb.c : registered new driver at76c505-rfmd

So it looks like everything "should" work. Does make me wonder if
there's something wrong with the wireless tools package that is
keeping it from recognizing the driver?
