Yes, it was one of the changes I made.

However, I wouldn't say that it didn't disable aggregation, it just
didn't fix the problem I was pursuing (receiving 11n beacon frames).

So I guess that for now, we could just go with it disabled and try
later on to enable it when the driver is more useable.
