The problem here is that ipw2200 doesn't use the (new) the regulatory domain configuration via cfg80211 and presents as a wired-style interface.
"Upon the initialization of the wireless core (cfg80211) a world regulatory domain (highly restrictive) will be set as the central regulatory domain. If CRDA is present the latest dynamic world regulatory domain is queried from CRDA; if it is not then a statically defined list is used. When a wiphy is registered to cfg80211 (possibly via mac80211) the effective set of permitted channels/maximum power is calculated for that device based on the current regulatory domain. As initially that will be the world regulatory domain, devices start out being restricted to that."
