It would have killed you to show us what was on line 13 in bcmwl5.inf
that made the INF parser in ndiscvt(8) choke?

Look people: there are a zillion different variants of Broadcom's
driver software. I don't have them all. Use some common sense here:
if your particular .inf file makes ndiscvt(8) unhappy, then provide
me a link to the file so I can figure out why.

Some .inf files are provided in unicode format. You need to run them
through iconv to turn them back into ASCII. I have no idea what's
the matter with this one since you didn't show me the contents.
