Broadcast messages in PS mode

When a STA is in PS mode, according to the std 802.11, broadcast messages must be sent by AP just after a DTIM. Did the hostap driver implement this?
In hostap_handle_sta_tx it was a test where it says "broadcast/multicast  frame - no AP related processing". I understand from here that the driver don't care when a broadast/multicast message is to transmit. Is that true?

Thanks,

Luísa
