I said nothing about the kernel but the firmware package :-) I would try to load a different firmware version (firmware-ipw2x00), that is, is now you have 0.35, try with 0.34 or lower. The files can be located here: http://snapshot.debian.org/binary/firmware-ipw2x00/ If you doubt about the files to download, just ask.
