The module I think you want is named hostap_cs, not just hostap. The
latter is a set of common code used by hostap_cs, hostap_pci and
hostap_plx. If you load hostap_cs it will automatically pull in
hostap, but without hostap_cs no driver will care about your card.

Please try loading hostap_cs manually. If everything works well then
you could compile a new kernel that excludes orinoco_cs but includes
hostap_cs to avoid the problem.

Of course it would be nice if you also wanted to help debug this
problem, but I'm afraid I can't suggest anything simpler than diving
into the code to add debug printouts. Well, you could start with a
serial console, maybe it would show something that doesn't make it
to the syslog file before the system locks up.
