Because of make limitations, the build will fail if there are spaces in the path leading to the compat-wireless directory. I tried to make it work anyway for a while and, while it probably is possible, it would involve rewriting part of kbuild and well... This at least throws up nicely if there is a space in the path.
I think it also fails if there's a colon in the path -- does anyone know what the "forbidden" characters would be? johannes
