I'm not using the latest wireless (2.6.25) but I also have trouble using 
wpa_supplicant (same error as you). After *a lot* of trying, I figured 
this out, to associate I do this:

/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf.2 -B
/bin/sleep 5
/usr/bin/killall wpa_supplicant
/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -B
/bin/sleep 5
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 192.168.2.252 netmask 255.255.255.248
/sbin/route add default gw 192.168.2.254

The contents of wpa_supplicant.conf.2 is:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

ap_scan=2
fast_reauth=0

network={
	bssid=00:1B:2F:A9:48:E8
	ssid="Chimera"
	psk="<<scrubbed>>"
	key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
	proto=WPA2
	pairwise=CCMP
}


The contents of wpa_supplicant.conf is:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=0

network={
	bssid=00:1B:2F:A9:48:E8
	ssid="Chimera"
	psk="<<scrubbed>>"
	key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
	proto=WPA2
	pairwise=CCMP
}

Trying to associate directly with only wpa_supplicant.conf won't work, 
*only* after I used wpa_supplicant.conf.2. Furthermore, I never made a 
bugreport as I thought that it would be an error in wpa_supplicant...

I hope this helps you in any way =)
