We're up to 2.6.34-rc4 upstream but we hadn't released a respective
compat-wireless stable [1] tarball yet. I finally got some time so
just posted one up [2], this gives us the 2.6.34-rc4 wireless
subsystem, bluetooth subsystem and new wireless/bluetooth drivers
compilable and installed on older kernels. Please report any issues
ASAP. For details on changes you can refer to the
ChangeLog-2.6.34-rc4-wireless [3].

I only did a quick build test against 2.6.31 and it seems to compile
fine :), more compile tests reports against older kernels and actual
loading tests reports against different kernels are greatly
appreciated.

Also just updated the tarballs for 2.6.32.11 and 2.6.33.2, and removed
the 2.6.30 and 2.6.31 tarballs since not even kernel.org supports
those anymore.
