I've built this primarily to see if the latest ath9k fix takes care of the "clients drop to 1Mbit, wifi flaky, even on just B/G" issue I, and others, have been dealing with.
Flashed on a 1043ND 1.7 and basic functionality verified. I'm using it as we speak, but I do not use tor or Openvpn.
Funny stuff: Webmon came on by itself, but it may be because I used "preserve settings" from the 3/30 build.
I've split the flashes to save time/bandwidth:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/lmlnw9ubnw9iw ... 9461-1.zip = All images except w
https://www.dropbox.com/s/gwlcs5yhsy9mi ... 9461-2.zip = Images starting with w (Example: gargoyle_1.5.x-ar71xx-generic-wndr3700, etc)
(ignore the git number in the filename, I started this pretty early)
