Works for me:

[37125.111672] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:12:17:e7:98:de
[37125.113509] wlan0: authenticated
[37125.113514] wlan0: associate with AP 00:12:17:e7:98:de
[37125.115875] wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:12:17:e7:98:de (capab=0x11 status=0 aid=1)
[37125.115881] wlan0: associated

This is on x86 32bit with iwl3945 and latest wireless-testing.
