My wIreless support (ndisulator & Dell TrueMobile 1400) has stopped working on current... pointers welcome.

Hi.

I have been successfully using the ndis/ndisulator drivers with a Dell
TrueMobile 1400 WLAN PCI card on an X300... my previous current build
was March 1, 2005, and things have been rock solid.

Today I rebuilt world with a fresh cvsup, and now have lost wireless
support. As always after building all, I did  cd /sys/modules/if_ndis &&
ndiscvt -i bcmwl5a.inf -s bcmwl5.sys -o ndis_driver_data.h && make &&
make install, however, thought this appears to compile just fine, upon
reboot this is no longer recognized and the only message I get is pci2:
<network> at device 4.0 (no driver attached).

Yesterday (before new build), I got

ndis0: <Dell TrueMobile 1400 Dual Band WLAN Mini-PCI Card> mem
0xe0210000-0xe0211fff irq 5 at device 4.0 on pci2

I tried to find any relevant changes in /usr/src/UPDATING and scoured
current and mobile, but to no avail. I saw the posts about potential
changes to these drivers, but nowhere any indication that changes have
been made (that I found at least).

If by chance I have missed something (post etc.) please forgive,
however, any pointers would be gratefully appreciated.

Here is some system info...
