Hi mobile people,

I've had the following patch in my (-STABLE) tree for a few months
now with no problems.  It allows my 802.11g Airport Extreme card on
my Mac to connect to my 802.11b FreeBSD box running in hostap mode.

I don't know if -CURRENT can do this, but is there any reason not
to put this into the -STABLE branch?

-Paul.
