Something changed between 2.6.18-mm1 and 2.6.19-rc2 to cause my laptop's
ipw2200 to be unable to associate with the access point using
NetworkManager and wpa_supplicant. I keep seeing this kind of thing over
and over in the wpa_supplicant output:

and iwevent keeps showing this repeatedly:

20:52:32.303962 eth1 Set ESSID:"Robman"

20:52:32.671560 eth1 Set ESSID:"Robman"
20:52:33.034063 eth1 Scan request completed
Replacing ipw2200.c from 2.6.18-mm1 (adapted for the irq changes) fixes
the problem.
I do notice that I keep seeing those "Scan request completed" messages
from iwevent when nothing is going on with the 2.6.19-rc2 driver but not
the 2.6.18-mm1 driver.
Anyone else seeing this?
