For my lucent cards at least, the sense of the number for wicontrol is not different between -stable and -current. The first fix was to just go back to adhoc demo mode, which was still port type 3 on both machines. When I made the switch to ifconfig options, after a few emails, some experiments, and reading some headers, it became apparent that port type of 0 was now IBSS on my lucent card, vs 1 in -stable. Now that I have everything back in sync they are happily beaming bits back and forth. -- Hi! I'm a .signature virus! Copy me into your ~/.signature to help me spread!
