my machine is having an identical looping scan failure
messages as did the submitter after recent update.

  worked: 2.5-2+v2.4-3+b1
  broken: 2.6-2
  device: 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03)
  driver: Broadcom BCM43a0 802.11 Hybrid Wireless Controller 6.30.223.271 (r587334)
  ifupdown: 0.8.16
  broadcom-sta-dkms: 6.30.223.271-5

/etc/network/interfaces.d/wlan0-supplicant:
    iface wlan0 inet dhcp
    wpa-driver nl80211
    wpa-conf /etc/wifirc
    wpa-debug-level 3

/etc/wifirc:
    ap_scan=1
    network={
        ssid="myssid"
        psk="mypassword"
    }
    ...

notes:
  - computer is a mbpr 11,1
  - rfkill shows as allowed
  - tried rebuilding dkms, does not work
  - tried reloading wl.ko, does not work
  - reboot after downgrade wasn't needed, worked right away
  - not using systemd or NetworkManager (not installed)
  - no driver backtraces exist in my syslogs
  - new wpasupplicant *does* work ok with a usb rtl8187
