How can I make wpa_supplicant more verbose?

I am having trouble connecting to my father's wireless network and
would like wpa_supplicant to give me more information in syslog.
What's the best way to accomplish this? I don't really know how
wpa_supplicant is invoked; the setup in /etc is pretty dizzying. I
did find that an environment variable named IF_WPA_DEBUG_LEVEL is read
by /etc/wpa_supplicant/functions.sh and seems to make logging more
verbose. However, I can't figure out where I should set that
variable. I suppose that I could just edit
/etc/wpa_supplicant/functions.sh, but that seems pretty brainless.
This is on Ubuntu 11.04, by the way.
Thanks.
