Ok, I did not quite get that the first time but it seems you are right: The wifi 
stack sets IFF_DONT_BRIDGE on any wifi interface in adhoc or station mode to 
keep it from being added to a bridge. Normally, this would be a very correct 
behaviour ..

Then we have to add ebtables support by calling some ebtables hooks that will 
tell us whether or not to drop the packet ? Is that possible (I'm not the 
ebtables expert here) ?  :-)

Cheers,
Marek
