The "old way" I used to go was different and less complex than the "old way"
described at <http://www.pingwales.co.uk/tutorials/project-evil.html>:

"My" "old way" is described in
<http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2005-July/016753.html>:

That's all I did. 

The "new old way" looks like a mix to me, but perhaps it's
just another possible way to build ndis with a certain code
version I never used.
