i just posted a followup email regarding this whole wireless support
on broadcom issue, but i'm curious now -- i just rebuilt an image for
the 2.6 kernel and selected broadcom wireless as the target profile,
but the kmod-b43 package was *not* selected for building and inclusion
in the final image.

so, if kmod-b43 would potentially give me working wifi, why is it not
selected for building and inclusion for that particular target?

p.s.  i'm looking under bin/packages/mipsel for the list of
constructed packages and, since i don't see kmod-b43, i'm assuming it
wasn't selected, correct?
