ipw is still broken [for me]..

Some time before 6 was branched I could use ipw with no encryption or WEP (but not WPA), but recently ipw doesn't work at all.

It loads OK, and I can scan for stations, eg..
[inchoate 13:18] ~ >sudo kldload if_ipw
[inchoate 13:19] ~ >sudo ipwcontrol -f /usr/local/share/ipw-firmware/ipw2100-1.3.fw
[inchoate 13:20] ~ >sudo ifconfig ipw0 up
[inchoate 13:20] ~ >sudo ifconfig ipw0 scan
SSID            BSSID              CHAN RATE  S:N   INT CAPS
dons            00:13:10:9b:52:d4    6   11M 55:0   100 E

However when I try and associate..
[inchoate 13:20] ~ >sudo ifconfig ipw0 up 192.168.1.100 ssid dons
[inchoate 13:20] ~ >sudo ifconfig ipw0
ipw0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
        ether 00:04:23:a4:12:74
        media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect)
        status: no carrier
        ssid dons channel 6
        authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpowmax 100

ipwcontrol output looks pretty suspicious too..
