What I've found with ipw3945 is that even though you can build it
against the in-kernel IEEE80211 stack (1.1.13), WPA doesn't work worth a
darn.  If you build it against the latest stack (1.2.15), everything
works quite well.  It would be real nice if Intel would get rid of the
ipw3945d daemon - which apparently they are in the process of doing -
just to make it so I don't have to have any hack-arounds for it.
