Hey,

There seems to be some kind of regression in wireless drivers that makes
it not possible to see some wireless networks.

This can be seen with both b43 and iwl3945 drivers.

Using Kismet wireless scanner these networks were visible under latest
git.
All the networks rendered invisible seem to be from channels: 1 (one
network visible), 3, 8, 12 and 13. Visible networks are in channels 1,
4, 6, 9 and 11.

Any hints how to debug this further?

This regression sounds like a perfect place to use git bisection. As it affects b43 and iwl3945, I would suspect some change in mac80211.
