Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 Just got latest svn, and the above patch appears already applied...

 ...from my ath/if_ath.c :
 {{{

 663. #ifdef USE_HEADERLEN_RESV
 664.    dev->hard_header_len += sizeof(struct ieee80211_qosframe) +
 665.                            sizeof(struct llc) +
 666.                            IEEE80211_ADDR_LEN +
 667.                            IEEE80211_WEP_IVLEN +
 668.                            IEEE80211_WEP_KIDLEN;
 669. #ifdef ATH_SUPERG_FF
 670.    dev->hard_header_len += ATH_FF_MAX_HDR;
 671. #endif
 672. #endif
 }}}

 ...some of my modinfo:

 {{{

 BlindRomance madwifi # modinfo ath_pci
 filename:       /lib/modules/2.6.17-beyond4/net/ath_pci.ko
 author:         Errno Consulting, Sam Leffler
 description:    Support for Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards.
 version:        svn r1865
 license:        Dual BSD/GPL
 vermagic:       2.6.17-beyond4 SMP mod_unload 586 REGPARM gcc-4.1
 }}}

 ...and finally the /var/log/messages excerpt from when I try to modprobe a
 freshly compiled vmnet:

 {{{
 [4376803.844000] bridge-ath0: interface ath0 is not a valid Ethernet
 interface
 [4376803.844000] bridge-ath0: can't bridge with ath0, bad header length 88
 }}}

 Any help, suggestions or advice welcome!
