Yes it does. One question.. will hslsd handle the case of 'no wireless
device' gracefully? I don't remember if the first segfaults I saw were on
a net4526 with a PCI card in it, but for the last compile I just generated
an ISO and booted to it in a vmware session (no wireless device) for ease
of checking at home.

How about 'svn export' on the working copy here? ..though maybe you don't
want a subversion dependency in the build?
