Yes, I use a Lucent Orinoco Wavelan card in an old laptop as an access 
point.  I'm running 1.5-current, but I'm fairly certain it was working 
with 1.5-Release.

You can find the details at http://www.live.com/wireless/unix-base-station.html
but a quick summary is that although you can't do real "BSS" mode (base 
station), you can do "IBSS" mode, which is almost as good if you just 
have on access point and don't want to use power-saving mode on the 
remote terminals.  My current laptop can home on it and on a real 
Lucent access point, without any reconfiguration whatsoever.
