When you get to this, you probably should use wireless-next-2.6
(or wireless-2.6) for the bisection.  The pulls from linux-2.6 in
wireless-testing make bisection much more painful than necessary
(as long as the problem is actually evident in the other kernels).
You can use the 'master-<date>' tags as guidelines for matching
wireless-testing versions to representative wireless-next-2.6 (or
wireless-2.6) tree versions.

Hth!
