I've built 0.9.4.0 for F15 to backport some fixes I needed. No adverse 
issues. So you may want to try

yumdownloader --source -releasever 16 --enablerepo=updates-testing 
NetworkManager

and then mock -r fedora-15-$ARCH NetworkManager-...src.rpm

you may need some updated dependencies perhaps wpa_supplicant and libnl3 
or something like that. Otherwise if you are interested I could provide 
some rpms for F15 tests from the official F16 src rpms.
