Same problem. The only version of madwifi-driver in portage that works with wpa_supplicant is the masked version, 0.1_pre20050809-r1. This version should be un-masked and the current version, 0.1_pre20051031, should be masked, as it requires a special tool to configure the interface which isn't yet in portage.
