Could be.  It goes away if I just make cfg80211 built-in (and leave
mac80211 and ath/ath5k as modules).

Note that unlike the previous bug, this only happens with
wireless-testing.  It's still present in today's wireless-testing,
v2.6.30-rc2-21665-gca0be26.  I haven't seen it while testing mainline.

Thanks
Alan
