I'm having some issues getting my [newly designed] board to run
with wl12xx (wl1271 on SDIO) My kernel is 2.6.37 and I'm using
a compat-wireless snapshot from 2012-02-28

Here's what I see when I boot - looks OK:
Compat-wireless backport release: compat-wireless-2012-02-28
Backport based on linux-next.git next-20120228
cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain
wl12xx: loaded

If I bring up the wlan0 interface manually, I can talk to the
device, scan for access points, etc. All looks good.

The problem comes when I try to negotiate for an address with
WPA security.
# ifup wlan0
wl12xx: firmware booted (Rev 6.3.5.0.98)
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
udhcpc (v1.19.3) started
Sending discover...
wl12xx: down
Sending discover...
Sending discover...
No lease, failing

A few seconds later, everything falls apart. Sorry for the verbosity, but
the messages changed at the end and I wanted to make sure you saw it all.

A little more information - maybe this helps:
  # ifup -v wlan0
  run-parts /etc/network/if-pre-up.d
