Hi Nick,
The commit that broke the mesh seems to be:
commit 8404080568613d93ad7cf0a16dfb68459b42a264
Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

mac80211: reject unhandled action frames
802.11-2007 7.3.1.11 mandates that we need to
reject action frames we don't handle by setting
the 0x80 bit in the category and returning them
to the sender, so do that. In AP mode, hostapd
is responsible for this.
Additionally, drop completely malformed action
frames or ones that should've been encrypted as
unusable, userspace shouldn't see those.

After that commit we observe invalid action category codes (0x9e) in
response to valid peer link open action frames (0x1e) and so no peer
links are established. We don't have a fix at this time.
Cheers,
Javier

>> But there are establishment problems with 2.6.34-rc1.
>> The peering status changes between LISTEN, OPN_SNT and HOLDING, but does not reach ESTAB.
