I tested again with a different AP, open AP so no WEP or WPA, borrowed
this AP just for testing so no other users, AP next to test PC (64/70
signal). Using wpasupplicant-0.6.4-2 and network-
manager-0.7-0ubuntu1~nm1~intrepid1. Config in /etc/NetworkManager so no
front-end delay.  Hopefully this will eliminate any potential issues.

Conclusions: associating with wpa_supplicant takes ~60 seconds. Total
connect time with NetworkManager is ~70 seconds. Manual 'ifup' takes ~15
seconds. wpa_supplicant goes through the same numerous states as before.
Again, this is with no authentication necessary.

The config is exactly the same - there is not much to configure - only ssid, 
scan_ssid=1, key_mgmt=NONE, priority=1.
The manual case associates in ~10 seconds.

Steps to reproduce:
In one terminal run: wpa_supplicant -u -d -t
In another terminal run: NetworkManager --no-daemon
You should see wpa_supplicant going through many states before associating.
Then terminate both processes and try: wpa_supplicant -iath0 
-c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -d -t

Some drivers take too long to associate (Was: network-manager 0.7 always asks 
for WPA passphrase)
