Thanks for confirming this.

Do you have any idea why this is happening? If the WPA bits are verbatim
from the 7.22 Agere driver this should be functional. I can only think
that some WEXT changes have caused this breakage.

I have less idea about what is happening here, but it sounds like
there's insufficient initialisation/cleanup.
If you post (or point me at) a WPA supplicant log (with -ddd) I'll take
a look at the problem. I may also submit a patch to remove the unused
code in wl_wext.c - it seems trivial to fix up.
Dave.
