I rebuild world& kernel preview with gcc34, I have wlan & wi statically 
in the kernel. Rebuild the ath-dragonfly and followed the instructions 
as you mentioned in the other posts in this thread, the results:

However after associating ath0 with ifconfig to the ssid and a primary 
wepkey and doing dhclient ath0 I see that dhclient says it broadcasts 
but with tcpdump I see nothing on the "wire".

My h/w configuration can be reviewed at

These are old outputs but should be still relevant, if you need other 
information or a temp account in this laptop just say so.
