It's the second one, and they really like to broadcast on channel 13, here.... As the installation process knowns the local time, it should be able to set the regulatory domain, either to EU or FR in my case, and avoid being forced to reboot into Windows (I had the option to), ignoring the root cause of the problem. So, if I quote the text in comment in /etc/default/crda, every default ubuntu installation "may infrige on local legislature" (not in my case here) the bug is already in ubuntu 12.04 LTS. this is irrelevant but I use the bcmwl-kernel-source driver for my Dell 1704 Wireless card based on broadcom BCM4312 chipset on an Inspiron 15 (3521).
