iwlist scan broken with hostap 0.1.1/0.1.2?

Hi,

Yes, I attached the output from the iwlist debug statements (thanks for 
leaving them in!) when using the hostap_ioctl.c version with the CUSTOM 
tags enabled. I cut the hex output (lots more lines for ca. 4 APs) since 
iwlist already stops after the first AP.
