Subject: iwconfig power timeout

Hello,
I'm trying to set power save timeout for mac80211 with iwconfig, but
I'm having problems with iwconfig on Nokia N810:
Nokia-N810-35-3:~# iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500m
Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
invalid argument "500m".
Nokia-N810-35-3:~# iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 3
Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
invalid argument "3".
Nokia-N810-35-3:~#
Looking at iwconfig sources the error means that either my syntax is
wrong or iwconfig has a bug in the parser. I'm guessing the latter
based on reading iwconfig(5). But before I will start investigating
iwconfig's magic, has anyone else seen this?
I'm using wireless-tools 29~pre21-2.osso1 on my N810, but I see a
similar error with wireless-tools 29-1.1 on my laptop running debian
unstable.
