I got this starting with 0.40pre2. The reason in my case is that
my AP doesn't broadcast its SSID. The cell with the empty ESSID
appears all the time, the one with the correct ESSID only appears
after I set the ESSID to the correct value.

I saw the same behaviour when I was using ndiswrapper, so just
accepted this as normal :-)

With 0.40pre1 only the cell with the correct ESSID appeared, but
as it only appears after you set the ESSID, it meant that I couldn't
use waproamd, so from my point of view the new behaviour is better.
