Ok. We can try first to put following in wpa_supplicant.conf:

sae_check_mfp=0

Let me know if that makes any difference.

> Why would I have to re-build wpa_supplicant?

I would provide a patch with additional debug prints so I get better 
understanding what is going wrong. Would be great if you can apply that and 
rebuild.

Arend
