Patch for wpa_supplicant multiple networks when ap_scan = 2

Hi,

I'm' not sure if this will be useful to anyone besides myself, but I'm
using the ipw2200 adapter, and have had trouble getting a single
wpa_supplicant configuration file that would get me connected with no
manual intervention to my home WLAN (using simple, static WEP) and my
work WLAN (using IEEE 8021X key management and EAP-PEAP-GTC
authentication).

I made a very crude patch to wpa_supplicant.c that will let the
supplicant scan through multiple networks in priority order, even when
ap_scan = 2.  It's not well done, it's what I could do in just a few
minutes to make it work for me.  I'd certainly appreciate any feedback
if someone finds this useful / badly broken / stupid / funny.
