Okay, this is madwifi-ng.

according to the attachment:

Jul 28 09:39:22 macbook NetworkManager:
<information>^Iwpa_supplicant(5470): wpa_driver_wext_set_wpa

this means you are using wext. Please try using madwifi instead of wext
(and sorry, I don't know enough about network-manager how to change that
besides hacking the source).

Gruesse,
