interface. This augments the default to an appropriate interface
code.

Idea from: OpenBSD
of the data structures to include new members that weren't defined in the
manual I have.
I opted to use Doug Ambrisko's WEP patches since David Cornejo's patches
did not include the necessary changes to ancontrol(8) to actually enable
and use WEP.
NOTE: I don't currently have access to an Aironet card, so I can't test
any of this. Everything compiles and close scrutiny doesn't reveal any
obvious problems, but Murphy's Law applies. This means I will probably
leave these changes in -current for a bit longer than usual until I'm
sure they work right.
NICs. (Finally!) The PCMCIA, ISA and PCI varieties are all supported,
though only the ISA and PCI ones will work on the alpha for now.
PCCARD, ISA and PCI attachments are all provided. Also provided an
ancontrol(8) utility for configuring the NIC, man pages, and updated
pccard.conf.sample. ISA cards are supported in both ISA PnP and hard-wired
mode, although you must configure the kernel explicitly to support the
hardwired mode since you have to know the I/O address and port ahead
of time.
Special thanks to Doug Ambrisko for doing the initial newbus hackery
and getting it to work in infrastructure mode.
