It was something I wasn't doing. :-)
I found out after lookking at the error log that I needed to link the
'wpi' directory in the driver source to /sys/dev/wpi.
I had put the source in /home/tingo/work/wpi-freebsd, so I issued the
commands
cd /usr/src/sys
ln -s /home/tingo/work/wpi-freebsd/wpi
and now the driver compiled. Let's see what /var/log/messages has:

Looks good. Let's see if it works too.
Nope, it seems like the firmware framework (or module) is the problem. From /var/log/messages:

Jul 22 20:58:18 kg-home kernel: wpi0: fatal firmware error

Jul 22 20:58:19 kg-home kernel: wpi0: could not load firmware image 'wpi_ucode'
(the last 3 lines repeats).
So, anything I can do to make the firmware work?
