I guess we're too late to add a blacklist entry for 2.6.33, but we should be able to get a fix into 2.6.33.1. Please confirm that the wireless toggle key (possibly fn+f2) works correctly for you after disabling hotplug. That is, it doesn't break if you disable the wireless and enable it again (and you don't see anything too scary in the kernel log).
