The reason I went with bleeding-edge and not the stable version is because the stable versions are hosted at orbit-lab.org and all the download links are broken so I couldn't find another place from where to download it.

To make a long story short, download and install the entire compat-wireless suit (without driver select). If the current version fails to compile download the one from the day before and so on until you find a version which compiles entirely.
