Do you know whether or not this driver has the kfree_skb() bug?

If you don't know about this bug, it is a fault in the 2.4.19 airo
driver that causes the kernel to oops after some amount of time
(hours or days) with the following sort of message:

Apr 17 16:46:27 thanatos kernel: Warning: kfree_skb passed an skb still
on a list (from d89c23ba).
Apr 17 16:46:27 thanatos kernel: kernel BUG at skbuff.c:315!
Apr 17 16:46:27 thanatos kernel: EIP:    0010:[__kfree_skb+27/300]

The wireless tools (package "wireless-tools" in Debian) can be used
instead of acu.
