This seems to look like/relate to a little problem I have for the last
few days - lately I have authentication failure on first try and have
to click on NM a 2nd time for it to go through; blow away
compat-wireless & revert to as-shipped distro modules gives me the
older/smooth behavior  of NM just associating without me
clicking/asking.

v2.6.31-38294-ged3ac87 + 'cfg80211: don't set privacy w/o key' doesn't
improve my situation.

wpa_supplicant log:
--------- distro modules:
Trying to associate with <id> (SSID='ID' freq=2437 MHz)
Associated with <id>
CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to <id> completed (auth) [id=0 id_str=]
CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys

-------- compat-wireless
Trying to associate with <id> (SSID='ID' freq=2437 MHz)
Authentication with 00:00:00:00:00:00 timed out.
Trying to associate with <id> (SSID='ID' freq=2437 MHz)

wlan2: RX AssocResp from <id> (capab=0x431 status=0 aid=1)

------ compat-wireless, note the extra deauth at the beginning, and
all those 'try 1''s.
wlan2: deauthenticating by local choice (reason=3)
wlan2: direct probe to AP <id> (try 1)
wlan2 direct probe responded
wlan2: authenticate with AP <id> (try 1)
wlan2: authenticated
wlan2: associate with AP <id> (try 1)
wlan2: RX AssocResp from <id> (capab=0x431 status=0 aid=1)
wlan2: associated

my wpa_supplicant config has two configurations, one (the usual) wep,
and a catch-all generic open network, if that matters.

Most of the instances in wpa log are extra authentication timeouts
with 00:00:00:00:00:00 , but occasionally it is my AP's address.
