The drivers in the kernel and the ipw2200 ebuild don't support master mode.
This project: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ipw2200-ap adds master mode
support for ipw2200 cards although I have no idea what state it is in.
It's not in portage but there are probably ebuilds floating around somewhere
for it.
