Well, "broken". It's incredibly stable outside of rekeying events, and
further testing shows that I don't actually notice these disconnects
most of the time because it reassociates fast enough. I noticed it the
first time because apparently I had both SSIDs from my AP uncommented
in my wpa_supplicant.conf and it decided at that point to connect to
the other one, which took a little longer.

Contrary to Andrey's report, though, I don't have to kick
wpa_supplicant at all. It will reassociate on its own every single
time.
