With the current kernel, my wireless lights stay lit all the time,
regardless of anything that I could do.  With the prior kernel they
stayed off, regardless.

Likewise...  The original Windows installation uses them as hardware
status indicators:

  Off - wireless disabled
  On - wireless enabled

But mine doesn't actually use them for activity status.  They don't
change when using wireless (i.e. there's no blinking during reception
not transmission), and they don't change for network availability (it's
lit if you've enabled your wireless hardware, whether or not their is
another wireless device to connect to).
