ath9k compile error

Madwifi-users,

During some testing related to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=620160 I encountered a compile
issue with
http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-2.6/2010/07/wireless-2010-07-31.tar.bz2
on Fedora 13 with kernel 2.6.33.6-147.fc13.x86_64.

The compile stops with the following error.

This report
http://forum.ubuntu-nl.org/internet-en-draadloos/asus-eeepc-1001-px/msg632534/
suggests compat-wireless-2010-07-28.tar.bz2 has the same compile issue and
it is not limited to Fedora 13.

Just gambled and tried compat-wireless-2010-07-08.tar.bz2 which compiled
with no issues.
I'm not sure where between 2010-07-08 and 2010-07-28 the problem was
introduced.
