I've been using a Project Evil Windows ethernet driver wrapped by NDIS.
I use wpa, and in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, I have the following line:
ap_scan=2

Our man page, for wpa_supplicant.conf states that this value should always be 
1, but I had to set it to 2 to get it to work. I believe this is because we're 
using a windows driver so we need to pretend we're running Windows.

So I had to set it to 1 when I want to use the bwi driver (new for 8.0) or 
uath driver.

Once I made this change, bwi works.
uath still escapes me.

I hope someone changes the man page to let people know they need to use 2 when 
using the NDIS driver.
