Don't know whether it will make you feel better or not but it definitely sounds like a timing problem. I had to solve this for something around 2.2.7 by hacking the if_wl.c driver. I believe I reported this in a post to freebsd-mobile. It had to do with setting up buffers in the modem. Later versions did not have this problem with the computers I use.
