Hello!

Give compat-wireless-2009-10-14 a try - it compiles and works against
2.6.30-02063006-generic.

I'm running that right now on an AR9160, with hostap-2009-10-13, but for whatever reason a Nokia E71 phone running release 200.something can't associate with a hidden AP using WPA2.

I'll see if I can expose any more clues...
