Aah.. You seemed to have hit yet another bug in driver_broadcom.c.. As
you can see, it is not exactly the best maintained driver wrappers due
to the driver interface being quite proprietary and no one seems to be
willing to spend time to maintain the open source wrapper code for this
particular driver.

This time the problem is likely in driver_broadcom not marking the AP to
use encryption in the scan results..

No, the same issue is there. However, you could try a workaround of
telling wpa_supplicant to not expect encryption for this part. This can
be done by adding eapol_flags=0 into the network block in configuration.
This should get past the AP selection issue, but I'm not sure whether
wpa_supplicant would manage to configure keys in such a configuration
after authentication.
