  Allow multiple versions of the compat-wireless stack to be packaged

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  Currently we've only backported the 2.6.36 compat-wireless stack in
  linux-backports-modules for Maverick.   However, there is a request on
  the horizon to provide newer versions of the compat-wireless stack via
  LBM.  Prepare for this by allowing multiple versions of compat-
  wireless to be packaged.

  Impact: There should be no risk of regression as linux-backports-
  modules is an elective install.  Additionally, newer backported
  versions of the compat-wireless stack will not have previously
  existed.

  Test Case: Build the linux-backports-modules package and note that
  multiple versions of the compat-wireless stack can be produced if
  enabled.
