Since this bug is about support for RT3290 and I have seen RT3290 to be
working fine in 13.04 I consider the support for RT3290 to be in place.

However In Ubuntu 13.10 there seems to be a bug introduced with kernel 3.11, so I have created a separate bug for that at 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1265151

I don't know whether that is the correct way to do it, please feel free to mark it as duplicate if that is the correct thing to do. At lease I find it usefull that others have identified what I believe it the offending commit in the kernel:
