Bleeding edge often hurts :-/

(Thanks for sending that report to openwrt-devel!)

The last trunk i tried and didn't find blocker bugs was r36139
With r36655 we experienced severe instability of ath9k wifi, and rolled 
back to r36139. Haven't tried more recent trunks than that yet.

We agree :) we use this approach with *ath9k_htc* devices (usb dongles) 
which still suffer bugs in adhoc mode.
