Comment (by mmlr):

 Well that looks like it almost made it. The things that stick out are:
 {{{
 wpa_driver_bsd_set_wpa: enabled=1
 wpa_driver_bsd_set_wpa_internal: wpa=3 privacy=1
 ioctl[SIOCS80211, op=103, val=0, arg_len=128]: General system error
 /dev/net/iprowifi4965/0: Failed to initiate AP scan
 }}}

 ... and obviously:

 {{{
 /dev/net/iprowifi4965/0: Setting authentication timeout: 10 sec 0 usec
 /dev/net/iprowifi4965/0: Authentication with cc:5d:4e:47:99:bd timed out.
 }}}

 It looks like the AP scan still takes place, though possibly not because
 of the wpa_supplicant but just generally because the driver is still in
 its initial scan mode. Does the output change if you retry the connection?

 The rest of the output looks fine and as expected, none of the ioctls seem
 to fail, so connecting should theoretically work. When it worked
 previously, did it take a lot of time to authenticate and get the
 connection going? I mean the current timeout is set to 15 seconds, the
 auth timeout is 10 seconds, so maybe previously it would take two
 attempts? In that case it would have taken around 20 seconds to establish
 a connection.

 I know that the wpa_supplicant works with this driver because I use that
 driver on both of my current laptops. The one in this machine is
 identified as:

 {{{
 device 088e: Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (Centrino Advanced-N 6235 AGN)
 }}}

 So pretty similar to the 6230 in your system.
