Since the code is working, it's likely to be in linux-wireless within
days, which means in will be scheduled for Linux 2.6.27.  2.6.26 is in
the RC phase now, but I've seen a similar patch for Broadcom going into
2.6.25 quite late in the game, so we can hope that 2.6.26 may have the
rtl8187b fix too.
