wpa_supplicant triggers races in softmac relatively easily, which are 
hard to fix properly. At least for me, motivation to work on this stuff 
is low given the potentially impending merge of devicescape, and every 
time I do spend some time investigating I just get even more frustrated 
at how difficult WE is to implement *properly* for "non-hardmac" 
drivers. We really have a need for a configuration system designed 
around 802.11.

I agree, the stuff in mainline should be fixed, but at least personally 
I am finding it harder and harder to justify working on softmac.
