As described, I blacklisted iwl3945 in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and added
the modprobe to /etc/rc.local. Result: 3 succesful boots, no hanging boots.
Does this mean we have a workaround?

If loading of iwl3945 is not a problem in the end of the boot process
(/etc/rc.local), does this mean there is some kind of timing issue or race
condition earlier in the boot process?

And FWIW: My Ubuntu 8.10 now also automatically re-connects to my WEP-AP,
which it didn't so far. It did reconnect to non-encrypted and to WPA, but
not to WEP APs. Is that solved too ... ?
