I just made a discovery.

If I create a wlan device with wlandevice ndis0, I am able to associate 
and get traffic through the interface.

I did get one warning though:
wlan0: ieee80211_new_state_locked: pending SCAN -> RUN transition lost

If I read UPDATING correctly this is the way to configure wireless 
devices on 8.0. As this is my first 8.0 system I was not sufficiently 
aware of that.

However, a panic is somewhat unexpected in this case.
