IIRC you did no report any newer test results after
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/pipermail/users_rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/2011-January/003070.html
(I think this change was merged into one of the other patches in rt2x00/experimental)

For me association works fast and reliable with these patches, but I
did not have time to test with the wpa_supplicant from
your ros.org code base.

Without the fix above it is clear why association would be unreliable.
