I think you should forward this bug to the HostAP maintainer. This
should be either be fixed in the driver or the driver should stop
claiming that it supports this card.
I merely found the duplicate IDs and removed them from Orinoco. I don't
have neither the hardware or the time to test 30+ cards...
Having two drivers supporting the same set of hardware seems pretty
pointless to me. Plus, it confuses hotplugging/automatic detection.
