Haven't got to comparing what my rt2860.c was doing vs. the one in the 
google code, but the google code source is definitely getting a panic in 
rt2860_rx_queue_done (sorry from memory, maybe fewer underscores) trying 
to run CCMP. It scans and goes up just fine, and wpa_supplicant exits 
without error...I suppose I should have run wpa_cli and gotten a little 
more than "exits without error" :). I ruled out panics specific to a 
DHCP packet by running the interface static. This time at least I saw a 
backtrace.

I'll keep looking at it. If anyone hasn't seen it before, I found "meld" 
in ports which is pretty nice for doing line by line comparisons where 
things are mostly similar, reminds me of the visual patch tool in Xcode.
