 There is a problem compiling trunk for kernel 2.4

 The file ieee80211_scan_ap.c (inside net80211) includes a file that do not
 exist for older kernel versions.

 50 #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,11)
 51 #include "sort.c"
 52 #else
 53 #include <linux/sort.h>
 54 #endif

 As this file was not sent with madwifi, it is necessary to copy form a
 newer version of the kernel this file, sort.c, and the header file sort.h,
 put these files in the appropriate places in the 2.4 kernel (lib folder
 and include/linux folder inside the kernel sources) and recompile madwifi.

 Doing this the problem is solved, i.e, madwifi compiles again for older
 kernels. But it wasnt tested if this solution brings some other effects.

 svn version 3353.
