OK, I wrote too soon.  I still get a dropped link, but it takes longer.

If anyone else is having troubles with this, can you try something for me?
As su, do an ifconfig and see if you're running ipv6.  I disabled it by
modifying modprobe.conf.local,
and it seems like I can now stay connected.

Well, it would be interesting to see a wireshark log of another device in
monitor mode while this happens. Additionally a spectrum analyzer log
would be pretty cool.
