 | FWIW, i ported -current driver back to netbsd-5.  i haven't tried

 | i'll see about setting up a netbsd 5 install on my laptop with iwn

 | even better...
 | 
 | the change isn't small, but it is almost a direct copy of the driver
 | from -current.  the only changes i had to make after copying were:
 | 
 |      - pmf resume API change
 | 
 |      - bpf_attach2 -> bpfattach2
 | 
 |      - also copy new pcidevs parts
 | 
 |      - also copy new pcireg.h PCIE parts
 
 Wow, thanks. If that works, we should pull it up.
