Ah so. Indeed:

(10:32) slaniel at TheloniousMonk:~$ dmesg |ig 2200
ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 0.11
ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation
ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection

We're up over version 1 now on this driver ... though from
the looks of it, it's really a .22 driver that was
optimistically stamped 1.0. I wonder why.

Anyway, thanks for pointing out something I should have
guessed to begin with.
