For recent versions of -RELEASE or -STABLE you should be using
ifconfig to set up encryption, not wicontrol. wicontrol is only still
there for backwards compatability.

For example; 
  ifconfig wi0 wepkey whateveryourkeyis wepmode on

Any other details can be found in 'man ifconfig'.

I've been using it with various firmware versions through many
firmware upgrades for a long time. I don't know offhand what each of
my card's firmware versions are right now, probably widely ranged.
