>Description:
Basicly if we try to use wiconfig in current, the command fails and crashes. The output looks like this :

NIC serial number:                      [  ]
Station name:                           [  ]
SSID for IBSS creation:                 [  ]
Current netname (SSID):                 [  ]
Desired netname (SSID):                 [  ]
Current BSSID:                          [  ]
Channel list:                           [ ]

some random figures and it finish with Memory fault (core dumped) 

The problem are clearly related to the change of sys/net80211/ieee80211_ioctl.c ( revision 1.34 and 1.35 ).
