This is diagnostic information.  Failures represent a broken card or
a driver bug.  I'd rather find the right values then screw around with
building sysctls to let people ignore their broken systems.  Please try
editing if_wireg.c and raising the value WI_DELAY (try 50 or 100 for
starters) to see if this will go away.  If that works, we can work back
down toward a smaller value.  If that doesn't work, you could also try
raising WI_TIMEOUT as well, but it's hard to believe the card would take
more then half a second to respond to a command.
