This is probably not a madwifi problem but given the amount of trouble
people are having with hostapd I thought it might be worth mentioning FYI.

It appears that if hostapd is set up for PSK and EAP that it confuses
the Windows XP supplicant. It doesn't reply (or doesn't reply properly?)
and hostapd crashes. Other Windows supplicants like Intel ProSet work
okay. If hostapd is set to use just
   wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
instead of
   wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK WPA-EAP
then the XP supplicant is satisfied.
