I seem to remember that ieee80211-source fell through a crack as far as module-assistant was concerned around the time Sarge went stable; all fixed in Etch now, of course. In my case I fixed it by manually adding the name of the package (ieee80211-source) to the list of packages in /usr/share/modass/compliant.list.
