I am running NetBSD 6.0_BETA2 with 6.0_BETA2 userland and I can report
the same issue, always with an ath(4), exactly (from dmesg(8)):

 ath0 at pci3 dev 0 function 0: Atheros 5424/2424

Suddendly after I started airodump-ng the system hangs up, but this
behaviour isn't consistent: sometimes I'm able to use it, then when I
terminate it I can't use the ath interface anymore and I should reboot.

The latter problem happened with NetBSD 5.1.2 as well... If I remember
correctly airodump-ng worked correctly in NetBSD 5.0 and/or before.

Is it only an issue that affect ath(4) or also other interfaces?
