rfkill - wireless problems since kernel upgrade

I recently upgraded my kernel to kernel26 2.6.36.1-3 (which in now in the core repo)

Since then

[host]$ rfkill list

will show the WLAN card as being 'soft blocked'

-- However --

If i run:

[host]$ rfkill unblock 0

rfkill hangs and does nothing...........

Is there a way of removing this block without using the rfkill command?
