build error due to change in kernel api:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/ChangeLog-2.6.27-rc1
3) Add iw_request_info argument to iwe_stream_add_*(), and use it to
size the event and pointer lengths correctly depending upon whether
IW_REQUEST_FLAG_COMPAT is set or not.

will attach patch from debian forum http://www.debianforum.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&p=639895
