All in all I have come to the final conclusion how I made it work for me:
1) install Will's patched drivers
2) adding ieee80211_crypt_ccmp-rtl to the /etc/modules
3) configure interfaces and wpa_supplicant.conf as above
Then it loads fine on boot and works fine with hidden SSID. I have added ap_scan=2 and scan_ssid=1 as below to the wpa_supplicant file, but have not tested if this determines it works with hidden SSID (my guess would be it does not but since it does not hurt..)
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="*********"
scan_ssid=1
proto=WPA2
#proto=RSN <-- one setting proto=wpa2 does the job
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
#pairwise=CCMP <-- one setting proto=wpa2 does the job
#group=CCMP <-- one setting proto=wpa2 does the job
psk=***************************************
}
