+  +iwl6005-ucode-18.168.6.1.ebuild:
+  New firmware train for >=3.3 kernels as pointed out by Arne Stäcker in bug
+  #434088. Slotted for maximum user convenience.

My apologies for the delay. As you see I had to make one additional change, and that is to change the SLOT variable from 0 to 1. After all, these two versions install different files, and they can co-exist on a system so that downgrading to and upgrading away from 3.2 kernels is seamless.
Thank you for your contribution to Gentoo Linux :)
