I've tried with a "yesterday" (cvs up'd and compiled yesterday, installed today)
system, i.e. one that did not have this patch. My sources still contain the 
lines
with NEW_FREEBSD_MLME_ASSOC (I looked at driver_bsd before adding that line to
my Makefile).

Both with -DNEW_FREEBSD_MLME_ASSOC and without the symptoms are the same (and
it's not working).

If there's something I can do to help, tell me (although I won't get to it
before tomorrow morning ESDT -- and won't have any internet while trying
things as the ath is my link out atm). [my sources are from "somewhen"
yesterday or maybe even a day older, hmmm]

I hope not... dumb me hasn't kept the old release sets of the previously
installed (older, but working) system...

Thanks though, so far!
