I'd be interested in knowing that as well. For the most part WPA works
without problems for me with Broadcom chipsets. The only exception that
I've found is an old Linksys WUSB11 2.8 that only works with WEP
(rendering it useless on my networks). Works well with WPA in M$ XP, but
that seems to be only because there was a firmware mod that was released
with specific M$ XP and Linksys drivers (doesn't work with WPA in
Win2KPro for instance).

You might try installing wpasupplicant and see if that fixes the
problem. You still didn't say what wireless card you are using (unless I
missed it).
