   Yes, that's what I'm doing I actually tried running the newly built

   It appears that something is wrong.  My wireless stick no longer

  That's odd. The only way for that to happen would be caused bug in the
  taskqueue stuff that zml committed, I think, but that's a long shot.
 
 Correction: Wireless actually works if you set the channel manually and
 start wpa_supplicant afterwards. So wpa_supplicant no longer seems to be
 able to change the channel itself.


The issue is still present in r209168.

The problem I had was related to other things, not wpa_supplicant 
directly. I upgraded my -current a few days ago and it's working fine 
for me, both before and after Rui's latest update (using the wpi driver).

Good to hear that it's working for you.
In my case, it was PEBKAC. To quote Firefox:
Well, this is embarrassing.
When I upgraded my machine I also removed all installed Ports and
cleaned up my rc.conf. Somehow I changed ifconfig_wlan0 to
fconfig_wlan0.
After inserting the missing 'i' I have a working wireless connection
again.

Now please forget what you've just read and only remember that my
problem is fixed. ;-)

I don't know what problem you're having but try using wlandebug to understand

Yes, that was also my suspicion, and after seeing, via top(1), that
ifconfig is stuck in the   *taskq state while attempting to set up
the wlan, I believe either r208623, or r208624, or both, is
responsible for the regression.

Reverting those two changes allows wpa_supplicant to work again. Thanks
