I hadn't noticed that some interesting options could be set in the
Makefile. I've "externalized" the relevant Makefile section
as /etc/sysconfig/ipw3945-options.mak where one can now set custom
options for the module rebuilds, and enabled the inclusion of the
monitor mode by default.

The new packages are here for testing :

Let me know how it goes ;-)

others too.
