Compiling magwifi-ng 20060816 snapshot on Fedora rawhide kernel fails
with:

The current Fedora rawhide kernel (2.6.17-1.2586.fc6) is really 2.6.18-rc4
with patches. Replacing all "#include <linux/config.h>" with "#include
<linux/autoconf.h>" fixes the problem. I have attached a patch which does
this. My impression is that autoconf.h is available in older 2.6 kernels
and config.h was kept for backward compatibility and is finally being
deprecated in 2.6.18.
