A coding error present since b43legacy was incorporated into the
kernel has prevented the driver from using the rate-setting mechanism
of mac80211. The driver has been forced to remain at a 1 Mb/s rate.

John,
This is a bug, not a regression. I guess under the new rules that it
is 2.6.28 material.
Thanks,
Larry
