After cvsup src-all upgrade (2006-03-04) which had changed version of 
ath_hal from 0.9.14.9 to  0.9.16.16 and after we had changed bridge 
configuration from net.link.ether.bridge.config="..." to added device 
if_bridge, we can't get anymore freezes:

$ uptime
20:35  up 7 days,  4:38, 1 user, load averages: 0,03 0,03 0,00

Is there any problem with bridge (net.link.ether.bridge.config) or old 
ath_hal? We can't found any change.log about this problem.
