I see.  It's recent code, so maybe it wasn't broken yet when I was
testing it on i386.

This code in drivers/net/wireless/p54/p54common.c sets rate_idx:

  rx_status.rate_idx = (dev->conf.channel->band == IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ ?
  hdr->rate : (hdr->rate - 4)) & 0xf;

printk() shows:

dev->conf.channel->band = 1, hdr->rate = 0, rx_status.rate_idx = 12
