That patch fixed the problem. For someone following this thread, the
patch is by Johannes Berg.
I can understand when some oddball hardware causes a corner-case
problem - I just had one with an ancient laptop - but somehow, I
expect that most people will use the old regulatory option, at least
for a while. Shouldn't the most rudimentary testing have caught this
problem?
