That compilation problem was reported this morning on the mailing list. I expect
that it will be fixed within a day or so.
I am currently testing rtl8192cu as an AP using hostapd. It is transmitting
beacons and a station can authenticate and associate using WPA2. The only
problem I'm having is that the station is not getting an IP number using dhcpd,
but I don't think that is a problem with rtl8192cu. Once I get it sorted out,
I'll send you my script for starting the AP.
