FYI....looks like this is simply a firmware issue.
A firmare upgrade seems to have cleared this 
up for me.  I haven't seen any freezes or error 
messages after quit some time.

Here's what I'm using (I had to do the upgrade 
from a windows box):

-----------------------------------
wi0: <Netgear MA301> port 0x4480-0x44bf,0x4400-0x447f mem 0xf5120000-0xf5120fff irq 9 at device 6.0 on pci2
wi0: 802.11 address: 00:09:5b:25:25:3a
wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3873
wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary 1.01.00, Station 1.04.09
------------------------------------
