Okay, I can use bool to if you want, too.

As I say, the "the 'disregard ibss join' feature" is already implemented only not complete. If you want a driver, that do in some situations merges and some others don't, you can easily remove the line 1663. But I think it would nice, if the main driver implement it properly, not half.

For now we can only use the madwifi and an awful hacked proprietary 2.4er kernel broadcom driver for it. It would nice to have a clean free software implementation for it.

Alina
