of course i tested IBSS merge with atheros hardware when i sent in the patch 
and it worked. this is about 6 month ago. recently i briefly tested IBSS, 
with the same HW but it did not work any more - i didn't have the time to 
investigate this issue...

please remember that there was a lengthy discussion about the standard 
compliance and the reasons behind the need for IBSS merge before my patch was 
accepted. i believe i had convincing arguments why IBSS mode does not 
reliably work at all in practice if we don't support IBSS merge.
