OK, I was mostly interested in whether it was a software problem or an
inherent hardware problem.  Reading from the [1]wpa_supplicant page it
suggested that WPA should generally be possible.

     Wi-Fi Alliance <http://www.wi-fi.org/> used a draft version of the
    IEEE 802.11i work (draft 3.0) to define a subset of the security
    enhancements that can be implemented with existing wlan hardware.
    This is called Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA).
