Looking at the differences between the 1704 (which built fine) and 1784 builds
I noted the following changes:
The /scripts/get_arch_target.sh was replaced with /scripts/get_arch.sh
In here there was previously some logic to add the "endianness" to the TARGET;
i.e.
change TARGET=powerpc-elf to TARGET=powerpc-be-elf. This logic seems to
have been purged, or possibly moved elsewhere.
Note that the debian patch07 to get_arch_target.sh (which no longer
exists after the rename) was in the changelog. Not sure if that was
still being patched, but if so needs to be updated.
The workaround for PPC32-be users familiar with the module building
process is to just to drop a
TARGET=powerpc-be-elf into the /usr/src/modules/madwifi/Makefile.inc and
rebuild madwifi.tar.bz2, and re-execute m-a a-i madwifi.
