Since you never sent me example data when I asked for it, I have nothing to go on. I also don't use 0.15 because I don't consider it stable, and I explicitly advise people to avoid it.
I've tested the patches with pcmcia-cs on 0.15. Among other things they match the fcs with the previous method of doing things and add per-frame stats. If you mis-configure kismet, it will see corrupted frames due to the FCS mismatch.
Since I have no data to go on, no way to test it, and little interest in 0.15, the patch stays as it is. Send me updates to it if you're concerned.
