That seems very strange but that might have happened. I was totally 
unaware there was such as thing as "disabling wireless" in the context 
menu of nm-applet. The thing that strikes me is that going back to 
0.8.1 would reenable the wireless, and going again to 0.8.3.999 would 
disable it. I bounced back and forth and 0.8.1 would always have 
wireless enabled while 0.8.3.999 would have it disabled, without my 
touching the context menu. Anyway, it's fixed now, so I guess we can 
close...
