Hi,

The ipw (and ndiswrapper) driver backends of wpa_supplicant are no longer
supported by wpasupplicant package >= 0.6.X. Attempting to use either of them
will result in failure.

Please apply patch below to set a sane default driver backend, and maybe take
a look elsewhere in the code for selection of driver backends to make sure that
wext is always used where ipw and ndiswrapper are now.

Thanks, Kel.
