Also seen here with a AR5BXB63:

ath0@pci0:1:0:0:        class=0x028000 card=0x0087106b chip=0x0024168c rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
     vendor     = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
     device     = 'AR5008 Wireless Network Adapter'
     class      = network
     bar   [10] = type Memory, range 64, base 0xfddf0000, size 65536, enabled

Updated to latest -head a couple of days ago, it came up and worked fine 
in 11g mode for a few minutes, possibly until nontrivial network 
activity.  Then locked up hard.  Removing the card and using wired 
networking solved it, but I haven't gone back to narrow it down yet.
