I don't think either mac80211 or wpa_supplicant supports IBSS WPA/WPA2 currently, right. For WEP, it should work since both DLS peers use the same key as set in the AP.
Authentication is against AP in any case. In addition you have peer key hand shake for exchanging encryption keys. It is similar to EAPOL hand shake, need to keep port closed till the keys are available. This should be supported in supplicant. WEP is global to bss so there is no problem.
