Well, it is related, but not identical. The presense of WMM IE is indeed
confusing the parser, but since you are not using WPA, that should be
fine (but is not in v0.4.7).

The IE parsing problems is still open and I don't know whether anyone is
working on it. The problem of bogus WPA IE preventing use of non-WPA
mode has been resolved in v0.4.10 and v0.5.7. I would expect those
versions to resolve the issue you are seeing (i.e., non-WPA case with
WMM).
