 I need to note that the wext backend is good enough to get WPA on
 madwifi on Q1U for me; Amit reported that he doesn't get WPA2 working
 in this setup though.

 (I don't think it's worth chasing WPA2 on Q1U with madwifi at this
 point of the cycle though, and don't have WPA2 myself; if someone cares
 and there's a way to unbreak it, please file a bug and subscribe me :-)
