iwlagn won't scan 5 GHz band

Please Cc: me on replies as I'm not subscribed.  Thanks.

I have a 4965, using kernel-2.6.29-0.197.rc7.fc11.x86_64 (Intel(R) 
Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux, 1.3.27kds).  I can connect to 
802.11n on 2.4 GHz, but it never finds the 5 GHz cell of the AP.  Is 5 
GHz 802.11n supported yet?  For that matter, shouldn't I be seeing the 
802.11a from my APs?  How do I get this thing to scan the A/N 5 GHz 
band?

Thanks.

#iwlist wlan0 channel

wlan0     11 channels in total; available frequencies :
          Channel 01 : 2.412 GHz
          Channel 02 : 2.417 GHz
          Channel 03 : 2.422 GHz
          Channel 04 : 2.427 GHz
          Channel 05 : 2.432 GHz
          Channel 06 : 2.437 GHz
          Channel 07 : 2.442 GHz
          Channel 08 : 2.447 GHz
          Channel 09 : 2.452 GHz
          Channel 10 : 2.457 GHz
          Channel 11 : 2.462 GHz
          Current Frequency:2.437 GHz (Channel 6)


I turned on the debug flag and verified that the driver is seeing 5.2 
GHz band channels as allowed:
