Sorry to reply to my own message; I tried with similar debug levels using the
ath driver
and am seeing a similar bottom line (won't associate) but some different
debugging information
which I've included below. I don't know if this sheds appreciably more light
or not.
Thanks again.

} Thanks for sticking with me :) I recompiled the kernel and enabled polling,
then did as
} you suggested. The results are below. One thing that stands out is that in
the first
} ``wicontrol'', the "Current BSSID" does match the MAC addr of my base
station. In the
} subsequent wicontrol (after I did some ifconfig stuff to tell it to go find
any station)
} that value reverted to 44:44:44....
}
} The debug output and pattern is identical with polling on as when using
interrupts.
} When I ifconfig the interface up, I get no messages. When I ifconfig it
down, I get the
}
} wi_newstate INIT -> INIT
} ieee80211_newstate: INIT -> INIT
}
} lines. I can repeat that as often as desired; ifconfig up => no messages
ifconfig up then
} later down => the INIT -> INIT pair above.
}
}
} Here's a transcript, edited to better space the lines out. The AP is
operating at this point
} with WEP turned off, access control turned off, and is broadcasting its SSID.
