Just use mad-wifi hal to replace a system one. It worked fine to me.
After replacing /usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/ath/ with content of madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-current.tar.gz/hal (and building a new kernel) my ath0
{
ath_hal: 0.10.5.6 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, AR5416, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, RF5413, RF2133, RF2425, RF2417)
ath0: <Atheros 5424/2424> mem 0xf4000000-0xf400ffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci2

ath0@pci0:2:0:0:        class=0x020000 card=0x04281468 chip=0x001c168c rev=0x01 hdr=0x00                                                                            
    vendor     = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'                                    
    device     = 'AR5006 family 802.11abg Wireless NIC'                           
    class      = network                                                          
    subclass   = ethernet

}
 working very fast - burst, dturbo, Atheros Fast Frames modes, and other atheros modes supported wery well! But hardware led not blinking (under u-know-what OS it is blinking when tx or rx is active).
