The stack trace below isn't a crash, it's just witness warning about a 
malloc w/ WAITOK while holding a lock.

Try updating to BETA2 and getting a trace from the crash.  Then also 
provide basic info like what you're trying to do at the time.  It 
appears you're trying to use wpa_supplicant w/ WPA based on the stack trace.
