It's an interesting point.  The problem is that I don't actually
have this hardware.  On the patch which I sent, it was obvious what
the intent.  My guess is that msg1.bssid.data[] should have 6
elements instead of 7, but I don't feel confident enough to sign off
on that.

Let's fix this bug which is obvious and let someone who knows how to
fix that other question address it.
