Actually, it wasnt a problem with my distro.
The zd1211rw module I was using still worked on the old softmac stack.

So I checked out the downloads section on linuxwireless.org and they provide a tarball with the modules for basically all cards available, and that tarball included the zd1211rw driver working on the mac80211 stack.

Now it works perfectly, and it doesnt crash any more.
It still has quirks like having to manually set the rate with iwconfig, but its well worth it :)
