I guess the .37 binary getting created empty for now and not having a meta for it active should be safe. ACK -Stefan

https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/673245 SRU Justification: As part of the linux-backports-modules package, we periodically provide an updated compat-wireless stack. linux-backports-modules for Maverick already has a pending pull request to add the 2.6.36 compat-wireless stack [1]. It's come to our attention that future requests for newer versions of the compat-wireless stack will be coming down the pipeline. In preparation, add infrastructure to start tracking the 2.6.37 compat-wireless stack. Impact: There is no impact at the moment as we're just adding the infrastructure to enable the 2.6.37 compat-wireless stack. We will wait to actually enable and build it until 2.6.37 is final. However, even once we do enable this, linux-backports-modules is an elective install and a 2.6.37 compat-wireless update wouldn't have existed previously, so there should be no risk of regression. Test Case: Flip the bit to build the compat-wireless-2.6.37 stack in the linux-backports-modules package and confirm that a 2.6.37 compat-wireless binary is created. I'd like to note that I've generated this on top of the previously submitted pull request from Tim Gardner [1] which adds support for the 2.6.36 compat-wireless stack.
