ipw kernel page fault

I had been using a rather old version (6 months ago, or so) of CURRENT, 
and using the ipw driver with the firmware loaded from a port.

I updated my source a few days ago, followed the directions in UPDATING 
for ipw.  I removed the firmware port and added the licence ack in 
/boot/loader.conf.

I can't get the driver to connect, and it throws me out into ddb when I 
give it a 'ifconfig ipw0 up scan' command.  I don't know if there's any 
way to get a text file from ddb, so I've recreated this by hand.

Kernel page fault with the following non-sleepable locks held
exclusive sleep mutex ieee80211com (802.11 com lock) r=0 (0xc4b2400c) 
locked @ /user/src/sys/net80211/ieee80211_scan.c:381
exclusive sleep mutex ipw0 (network driver) r=0 (0xc4b253fc) locked @ 
/usr/src/sys/modules/ipw/../../dev/ipw/if_ipw.c:1474

plus a whole bunch more stuff, I can transcribe and send if it's useful..

It also spit out this...

Fatal trap 12:  page faultwhile in kernel mode
cpuid = 0; apic id = 0.0
fault virtual address = 0x0
Again more stuff...

If someone can tell me what will help, I'll get that info.

Thanks,
Joe Kraft
