I have a problem with restarting wlan interface using wpa_supplicant module. First start seems to pass ok, but as soon as I issue /etc/init.d/net.ath0 restart I can't make it work anymore.

wpa_supplicant is doing it's job as the ath0 interface is reporting a disconnect.
isn't that strange for PCI card to report disconnection? And there's no such problem after booting, i.e. when net.ath0 starts up for first time, only restart causes this
Can't reproduce it anymore.
