I'm running the Intel 4965 in a Lenovo Thinkpad T61p on Fedora 8 kernel 
2.6.23.8-63.fc8.  I just tried 
2.6.23.9-85.fc8 and it fails as well.

I followed these steps:
1. Booted latest kernel
2. Logged in and started NetworkManager service (eth0 - wired brought up).
3. Selected NM applet and clicked on SSID I wanted to use.
NM prompted me for my Gnome Keyring password.
When it failed to authenticate, it brought up the dial including all the wireless settings for the SSID and I input my password again (which failed).  Notice the WARN in the following sanitized log:
