I was about to say that there is no reason for the statement ("only 
FreeBSD supports atheros") to be true, at least for any architecture 
where a binary HAL already exists.

There is no OS-specific code in the HAL.

Heck, it oughta be possible to get the BSD driver to run on OpenBSD, 
though that would undoubtedly bring the wrath of Theo.
