--- Comment #166 from J.R. Oldroyd <fbsd@opal.com> ---
I saw that the code was there for ages.

I should perhaps have said that I am now at a place where there is a cable
modem with a primary SSID with WPA/RSN and a secondary SSID which is OPEN.  So
I have been able to reproduce the problem myself now too.

Some printf instrumentation showed that the IE is being added in that
"Workaround" section.

The comments for wpa_bss_get_ie() and wpa_bss_get_ie_ext() show that the _ext
variant is to be used for WLAN_EID_EXT_*.

Perhaps this code was never reached in earlier versions and some other change
now allows it to be executed?  That still needs investigating.

The patch does appear to fix the problem when applied to the stable/13 code
with no other patches.
