Please respond via emailed reply-to-all, not via the > > > bugzilla web interface). iwl3945 was loading the ucode (firmware) during probe but then changed to do this on ifup. for 4965 this does not cause such problems because the rfkill state is reported via an interrupt; while for 3965 its an ucode event... no ucode means no ucode event ;) (but it should be able to read the current state after an ifup)
