Just a confirmation really.

After a few days of using it, 2.5.0.0 (from ralink site) is flaky and exhibits the following:

* disconnect after leaving overnight producing the attached oops
* inability to connect after cold-plugging
* occasional disconnects
* occasional 802.11n authentication failure - NetManager would claim a failure to authenticate but would auth with a 802.11g network. Usually accompanied by an Oops but I don't have a sample

I have compiled 2.4.0.1 a.k.a. "the empry driver" as per emory's instructions and I am currently using it. It allows cold-plugging at least. We'll see in a few days.
