Adding, however the card's VIDs in the upper portion of code appears to solve the case. I welcome you to test yourself.

I just checked with the compat-wireless of April 18, and with me removing the '#' sign in config.mk does the trick.
I can't explain why it doesn't work for you, but I cannot see anything wrong with compat-wireless or with rt2x00 inside compat-wireless.
