The encryption fixes I know about for WPA should already be in 2.6.26.  But
ath5k uses mac80211 for encryption so if it is encryption related, then it's
in the interface code between them, or else more wireless cards would have
the problem.

It looks like you didn't get any scan results.  Does 'iwlist wlan0 scan'
work?

CCing ath5k-devel, you'll probably get more help there.
