Apparently the wpa_supplicant update re-writes the 
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant_custom-wlan0.conf file using a simple 
wpa_passphrase implementation. This broke the wifi on my node until I 
manually edited the above file from a backup as follows:

network={
         ssid="thessid"
         psk=thepsk
         proto=RSN
         key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
         pairwise=CCMP
         auth_alg=OPEN
}

.... just in case someone else might be experiencing a similar issue.
