All the pieces:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/development/SRPMS/

The particular plugin causing the trouble:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/development/SRPMS/gkrellm-wifi-0.9.12-3.fc6.src.rpm

If you're not on a box that has rpm2cpio or similar, yell and I'll
break that .src.rpm up for you - there's basically just an 18K .tar.gz and
a 14K patch in there.
