ndiswrapper-dkms 1.57-1ubuntu1: ndiswrapper kernel module failed to build

[Jerry Miller]

Software updater notified me about new updates, so I installed them. During the install, I was notified of a system problem during install, which generated this bug report.
I see that it references a problem with the ndiswrapper package.
During the initial install/setup of ubuntu, I couldn't get my wireless card working, and ndiswrapper kept reporing a missing module cpustat.
My son, who is much more adept at linux systems than I am, eventually figured he could solve the problem by downloading a newer version of the ndiswrapper package from sourceforge.net, so presumably the problem relates to that. I believe I have ndiswrapper 1.58 installed, although the software centre doesn't show it at all (ndisgtk instead) and the Synaptics Package manager still shows 1.57.

rootuser@ubuntu:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 12.10
Release: 12.10

Software Center reports this version of ndisgtk 0.8.5-1.
rootuser@ubuntu:~$ apt-cache policy ndisgtk
ndisgtk:
  Installed: 0.8.5-1
  Candidate: 0.8.5-1
  Version table:
 *** 0.8.5-1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main i386 Packages

I'll have to ask him what exactly he did, but I've attached the file he downloaded from sourceforge.
He works as a software professional in the Linux world, so I assumed he was following the appropriate steps for software installs as he did the upgrade.
