Thanks, Stefan! I checked the file, which states that it is "generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules program, probably run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file," and there is a line for the madwifi ath_pci driver that sets the wireless card to ath0. In addition, there's a line for

Wireless stopped working after kernel upgrade
