HEAD 1.721 w/ patched wpa_supplicant 0.5.0

[Bill Moss <bmoss clemson edu>]

1. Patched wpa_supplicant-0.5.0 using Dan's patch at

http://people.redhat.com/dcbw/wpa_supplicant-ctrl-iface-ap-scan.patch

and the .config file

CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXTENSION=y
CONFIG_DRIVER_WEXT=y
CONFIG_DRIVER_WIRED=y
CONFIG_IEEE8021X_EAPOL=y
CONFIG_EAP_MD5=y
CONFIG_EAP_MSCHAPV2=y
CONFIG_EAP_TLS=y
CONFIG_EAP_PEAP=y
CONFIG_EAP_TTLS=y
CONFIG_EAP_GTC=y
CONFIG_EAP_OTP=y
CONFIG_EAP_SIM=y
CONFIG_EAP_AKA=y
CONFIG_EAP_PSK=y
CONFIG_EAP_PAX=y
CONFIG_EAP_LEAP=y
CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=y

This patch adds the ctrl command AP_SCAN to wpa_supplicant.

2. Built NM HEAD 1.721

3. Connects using static WEP in hidden and non-hidden networks.

Comments:

The 10 second timeout to acquire an ip address seems a bit short. How 
about 15-20 seconds.

NM occasionally crashes right after the INTERFACE_ADD command is sent to 
wpa_supplicant. This happens about 1 in 10 connects.
