Well, I always configure and compile the kernels myself. This parameter 
has been set in my 2.6.29.5 kernel (where it did no harm) and I copied 
it into the 2.6.30 configuration without thinking. So 'stupidly' may be 
a better wording  than 'involuntary'. Anyway, unsetting it and re-making 
the kernel did it for me.

$ grep WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY /boot/config-2.6.30-020630-generic
> # CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY is not set

That looks good.
