I applied the patch
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=123320213115108&w=2 and it seems
better now. One instant of not association out of 20 tries, but
reloading the modules seems to make it work again. So, let's just
close the case?

Here's part of the dmesg. Kernel is 2.6.29-rc5 with patch above applied.

wmaster0 (iwlagn): not using net_device_ops yet
