Compile issues for Fedora 8 kernel-2.6.24.2-7.fc8.x86_64.

For a successful compile, I had to

Add to ieee80211_sta.c
#define CONFIG_MAC80211_IBSS_DEBUG 1

Add to compat-wireless-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.h
static inline void le32_add_cpu(__le32 *var, u32 val)
{
       *var = cpu_to_le32(le32_to_cpu(*var) + val);
}

The first looks like a compatibility fix.

A recent kernel patch has moved byteorder definitions such as this one

from /usr/src/kernels/2.6.24.2-7.fc8-x86_64/fs/ocfs2/endian.h (missing in Fedora kernels)

to  /usr/include/linux/byteorder/generic.h (in Fedora kernels)

But this patch has not made it to Fedora 8 and 9 kernels.
