please try attached patch and rebuild wpa_supplicant.

it restores
  src/dist/wpa/src/drivers/driver_bsd.c::wpa_driver_bsd_associate()
as same as
  src/usr.sbin/wpa/wpa_supplicant/Attic/driver_netbsd.c

this problem was introduced in -current at Dec 12 2008, in netbsd-5 at
Jan 22 2009. NetBSD 5.0 has this problem.
