I put these up at:

Here's the info from it:
  This fixes some the last bugs and includes support for running the
  Cisco Linux Aironet client binaries.

  This is relative to -stable and /sys/

  http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/aironet-utils-linux
  
  Grab AIROLINUXv10002.tar.gz.  You will need Linux emulation enabled 
  and the directory /compat/linux/proc/aironet.

  Do a mkdir -p /compat/linux/proc/aironet

  Then just run "acu" or "cem".  Note the Cisco stuff likes to save
  stuff in etc/eth<n>.cfg this is annoying since it tries to configure
  the card from that when it starts up.  This can break your
  current configuration if it didn't know about changes.  So I 
  also remove that file when the pccard is inserted.
  
  I've also included a minor patch for ancontrol to better handle
  sparse key and extra keys.

  FYI when you use "acu" to upgrade your firmware, trust me you machine
  hasn't frozen it just running really slow during the upgrade.  

Let me know how it works.  One tester has confirmed it worked.  I need to
make it conform to style and things like that.
