There was a GSOC project to add 802.11 support. I mention this because
the code might be simple enough to be useful as a template for Plan 9
wireless drivers.

wrong?

I just looked through briefly, but It seems this should work fine as
at least a template. At the very least you have an example. I'll take
a deeper look tonight and see if I can't come up with something.
