After my weekly cvsup on all my machines this morning, -STABLE and -CURRENT, I 
noticed that the simple patch that would fix wpa_supplicant with ndis hasn't 
yet made it to /src. I am refering to 
http://freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=94735

Perhaps someone should care that the release of 6.1 without that patch ensures 
that wpa_supplicant with ndis will not work. If the patch doesn't satisfy, 
then a revert to pre-march-24 on wpa_supplicant should be an option. 

Either way, it should never have been 'broken' for so long (now 2 weeks) 
without either reverting or a patch commited, after all, does the power or 
telephone company cut you for so long when upgrading their equipement? They 
either fix it right away, or go back to a working state until they figure it 
out.

Not to vent or blame anyone, but this situation does require a small 
attention :)

Nicolas.
