I used the compat-wireless-2011-03-14 snapshot with a Debian stock 2.6.37-2 kernel. BTW one of the files had an error with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE undefined. I can't remember which file because I forgot to make a note of it before make wlunload caused the expected crash. The apparent cause was that /usr/include/linux/sched.h contains far less than sched.h in the kernel source. I worked around it by defining the macro as 1 at the top of the affected file.
