There have been many changes to ath and the net80211 layer.  Please try 
to isolate what change affected you.  Past that you must provide the 
mac+phy revs for your card.  Otherwise you have not indicated anything 
about your configuration (open auth, wep, wpa, etc).  You haven't 
provided any logs.  Have you tried to authenticate w/o wpa_supplicant?
