Quite a while ago I tried to upgrade a Cisco 5508 from 7.4 to 7.6, but quickly 
bailed when WebAuth failed--802.1X worked though.  At the time I thought I'd 
hit a known bug with WebAuth but that turns out not to be the case.

I tried the upgrade again over the Thanksgiving break when I had time to 
troubleshoot.  It turns out what WLC returns for Called-Station-ID changed 
between versions.  In 7.4 it gave the WLC IP address for Called-Station, but in 
7.6 it gives {MAC address}:SSID.  Since I was filtering on Called-Station-ID, 
everything broke.

For 802.1X on 7.4, the WLC sent Called-Station-ID {MAC address}:SSID, so at 
least WebAuth and 802.1x are consistent in 7.6.
