Just finished dealing with something similar - found the ~x86
wpa_supplicant would work with ndiswrapper, whereas x86 would not! -
using identical config files.  Also found that /etc/conf.d/wireless is
not parsed by wpa_supplicant configs (whereas it was with iwconfig), so
I had to move the settings to the main net config file before things
would work.  This is sort of implied in the docs, but I coulnt find it
specifically covered.  On my other laptop this was not neccessary.  I am
not sure if its my system(s) thats broken, or the dogs breakfast of
files that is the gentoo networking stuff falling prey to its lack of
adherence to the KISS rule ...

Sorry, its always leaves me in a frustrated state of mind when I deal
with gentoo networking, wireless in particular ...
