according to git accept4 has been added into 2.6.36 and according to the
squeeze changelog, it has been added into the 2.6.32-35 kernel.

If you're running debian kernels (the 3.2 from wheezy or any kernel
newer than 2.6.32-35 on squeeze), it should already be fine. If you're
running any other kernel, I don't see how it can be handled. At least
disabling the accept4 syscall for every kernels doesn't seem a good
idea.

off-topic (it's not related to udev): if the wifi is not working, please
check if it's working with newer kernels and if not, please report to
libertas devs so that they can try to fix it, otherwise it's never going
to be fixed.
