For various reasons, I upgraded my firewall from 4.8-STABLE to
5.1-CURRENT.

Recently, I complained that the wireless clients of the wi0 PCI card
running in hostap mode would loose sync.  It was repeatable that they
clients would loose sync when the server was serving more interrupts.
One of the most obvious expamples was playing xmms on the server would
cause disassociations of the clients.

Upgrading the server to 5.1-CURRENT seems to have fixed the problem.

Just a report.  4.8-STABLE is still broken... but it's less convenient
for me to attempt any tests now.

Dave.
