 This is hrev45525.

 Since the recent keystore addition, connecting to wifi isn't working every
 time. Connecting via the NetworkStatus icon in the Deskbar works
 sometimes, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes I get asked to give the
 wpa_supplicant access to the keystore ("Allow always"), sometimes not.
 Then, while connecting, the connection window with the already filled in
 password appears 3 times after another. I'm not sure if I should check the
 box "Store this configuration" or not...

 Anyway, then often the wpa_supplicant crashes, see attached report plus
 syslog and syslog.old. Not sure how much of syslog.old is from that
 session. Is there a way to detect the start of the entries for the most
 recent session?

 In this session, I tried to down/up/scan with ifconfig to make my network
 ("haiku-top") visible again in the NetworkStatus replicant and tried once
 more to connect. Same result.
