Yes and it works.

Once I got the device, I found and fixed two main problems in the
driver for the RTL8187. The first keeps mac80211 from adjusting the
wireless rate, and the second hurts the power setting for OFDM rates.
Both of these are fixed in the latest wireless-testing and in
compat-wireless.
