I've reconfirmed this, shutting down all processes that could possibly be related:
- gdm
- NetworkManager
- hal
- acpid
- devicekit-power
- bluetoothd
And monitor the rfkill state from the console. When I hit Fn+F5, the wireless kill switch is still being toggled.
# cd /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/
# cat name
phy0
# cat type
wlan
# readlink device
../../phy0
# readlink device/device/driver
../../../../bus/pci/drivers/iwl3945
