I get the following error:

Comment 2 Wormo (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-10-15 21:55:11 UTC
Hm, probably time to get a newer madwifi snapshot... assigning to maintainers
Comment 3 junmin 2008-10-16 04:15:26 UTC
i can confirm this error.
Comment 4 Daniel Faucon 2008-10-16 06:52:51 UTC
Same here, and much people will get stuck on 2.6.26 if it's not fixed, as it is always reproducible.

Mandriva is providing this snapshot:
ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/MandrivaLinux/official/2009.0/SRPMS/non-free/release/madwifi-0.9.4-3.r3835mdv2009.0.src.rpm
Comment 6 Nick 2008-10-18 09:13:43 UTC
Pacho,

> Mandriva is providing this snapshot:
> ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/MandrivaLinux/official/2009.0/SRPMS/non-free/release/madwifi-0.9.4-3.r3835mdv2009.0.src.rpm

confirming that the Mandriva's package _is_ working.
All is needed - just rename and repack the tar.gz provided in the srpm.
Pretty simple changes.
Comment 7 Nick 2008-10-18 09:43:45 UTC
> confirming that the Mandriva's package _is_ working.

But the response delays from the AP with the Mandriva's driver are high...

(I'm assuming the driver is needed only to run the card as AP ;)
as the vanilla ath5k already provides STA mode).

So, it's working ...but nominally. Not so usable.
Comment 8 Nick 2008-10-18 16:48:13 UTC
Found a way to get really working AP.

Just get the snapshot from here:
http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-testing

It's compiling fine against 2.6.27 and working as fine as v0.9.4 in 2.6.26 kernel.

Added patch madwifi.org/changeset/3811 to madwifi-ng-0.9.4-r1.ebuild. Newer snapshot is completely different issue and seems that bug 234126 is about that.

Fixed.

Thanks, fixed. But next time, please, open new bug for new report.

Reopening as this is not fixed in the stable tree. Please could you request that the appropriate version gets marked stable?

2.6.27 is planned to go stable on dec 15th.

Thanks for notice Daniel. But actually this bug is fixed. Per comment

  15 Nov 2008; Peter Volkov <pva@gentoo.org> madwifi-ng-0.9.4.ebuild,
  madwifi-ng-0.9.4-r1.ebuild:
  Workaround for our build system was commited into linux-mod.eclass, bug
  #237618. So it safe to remove it from madwifi-ng-0.9.4-r1. Also to avoid
  somewhat unnecessary round of stabilization patch for build failure on
  2.6.27 moved into madwifi-ng-0.9.4. Now madwifi-ng-0.9.4-r1 and
  madwifi-ng-0.9.4 are equal, but don't remove any of them to avoid
  unnecessary rebuilds.

patch was moved into stable ebuild too. FIXED.
