I was going to run some diffs in wt against 2.6.36-rc5 to try to figure out
the changes I needed to pull in.

A straight pull of wt into 2.6.36-rc5 didn't work well for me, and it
appeared a rebase was going to be even worse.

So, I'm going to try manually applying patches...after I make another
stab at getting the ath5k virtual AP/STA patch acceptable.
