ndiscvt: Unresolved symbols / kldload if_ndis panic

Hello,

I'm trying to get Projet Evil working on this Dell Inspiron 8600 Laptop
with an Intel Pro Wireless NIC. I tried the XP driver shipped with it
and the latest offered from Dell, but none works (more below).

I'm running RELENG_5, dmesg and drivers can be obtained from
http://www.galgenberg.net/~q/freebsd/

none3_at_pci2:3:0: class=0x028000 card=0x25618086 chip=0x10438086 rev=0x04 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Intel Corporation'
    device   = 'Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 7100 LAN Card Driver'
    class    = network

The ipw-driver from http://http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/ipw/ seems to
work (although I needed to download the mentioned firmware)

ipw0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 MiniPCI> mem 0xfaffc000-0xfaffcfff irq 5 at device 3.0 on pci2
ipw0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
ipw0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps

I'm trying the following (old and new driver produce the same)
igor# ndiscvt -O -i /root/ipw_old/W70N51.INF -s /root/ipw_old/W70N51.SYS -o ndis_driver_data.h

Afer running 'kldload if_ndis' I get the kernel message:
link_elf: symbol W70N51_SYS_drv_data_start undefined

and kldload just sits there for about 60s. top showed that kldload is in
state 'ndisth'. I then tried 'ps auxl' and got a panic.

I can also reproduce the panic when running sysctl -a after the kldload
has finished. It will print the first lines (until kern.clockrate) and
panics with the following trace:
strlcpy
fill_kinfo_thread
sysctl_out_proc
sysctl_kern_proc
sysctl_root
userland_sysctl
__sysctl
syscall
Xint0x80_syscall

Calling doadump() is not possible, because a mutex is held...

But back to the real question, where the heck is
W70N51_SYS_drv_data_start? Am I using the wrong driver?
