>Description:
	If I create a wlan0 device as follows:

	ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev foo0 wlanaddr 00:... 

	the wlan0 device gets created properly with the specified mac,
	however the device never associates. The same commands without
	'wlanaddr 00:...' works just fine on the same hardware. 
>How-To-Repeat:
	See above
