You are being bitten by the fact that adhoc means different things.
On 4.x, it means "Demo adhoc mode" and in 5.x it means "IEEE Standard
IBSS mode".

on 4.x use:

ifconfig wi0 media DS/11Mbps mediaopt ibss-master

on 5.x use:

ifconfig wi0 media DS/11Mbps mediaopt adhoc

: Anyhow both ends says "associated".

In ad-hoc mode, it always says that, so that means that the card is
there and nothing else.
