 Alex's patch addresses a different issue, there is a race with
 wpa_supplicant (/etc/rc.d/netif restart) which might free a node while
 one of the wpi functions is using it. It shouldn't make any difference
 in your case, though, it's nice to fix this now and I probably going
 to commit it anyways.
 
 Please let me know if there a any stability issues left, it made a
 pretty good impressions over this weekend while I did run some tests.
 
 Thanks.
