The rate Here I have the same behaviour with iwl3945 from compat-wireless-2008-06-03, I cannot force the bitrate with iwconfig (Wireless-Tools v29). But the interface automatically sets the speed to 54M. And it worked nominally even before this latest patch by Johannes. I'm pretty near the access point's antenna; signal strength varies between 99% and 100% and noise power oscillates between -24 and -19 dBm. So, maybe, the problem does not reside in the device driver?
