I also have an ath9k-based OpenWrt router, and see the same issue when
running the latest builds.

I've reproduced the problem with the very latest svn (which uses
compat-wireless 2009-10-09 and kernel 2.6.30.8) and the tree as of
2009-06-20 (which uses compat-wirless 2009-06-02 and a local patch to
use kernel 2.6.30). Both have hostapd 0.6.9.

The router's MAC is 00:90:cc:f4:9b:98.
The client is an IPW2200 (linux driver from 2.6.28) with MAC 00:12:f0:74:ae:f9

There is a WPA2-PSK passphrase of "testpass" set.

Attached are the complete binary dumps, fail.pcap and win.pcap.

Interestingly, Linux 2.6.32-rc5 with a rt61 pci card crashes with a
BUG_ON() when I try to associate with the bad version.

kernel BUG at net/mac80211/agg-rx.c:90!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

I've recompiled with debug info turned and will follow up to the
appropriate mailing list next time I am ready to crash my workstation
:p
