>netbsd-3 seems to have broken my nell/wi-combo:

Update: Re-plugging and manually ifconfig(8)uring the card brings it up
with nothing but the usual "stray interrupt" messages.

My Powerbook sees the card's station ID, but does not manage to get an IP
via DHCP.

Setup:

[hauke@pizza] /etc # cat ifconfig.bridge0
!brconfig $int add hme0 add wi0
up
[hauke@pizza] /etc # cat ifconfig.wi0
# $Id: ifconfig.wi0,v 1.4 2004/08/29 14:53:16 hauke Exp hauke $
#
# Set up wlan accesspoint

# Be an accesspoint
up chan 11 nwid Forstquelle nwkey "1234567890123" mediaopt hostap
!/usr/sbin/wiconfig $int -A2
[hauke@pizza] /etc #

-- note that I always had to 'ifconfig wi0 down' and then do the
ifconfig/wiconfig dance manually, or the Powerbook would not be able to get
IP connectivity. But now is different.

The machine runs a netbsd-3 build from 18 May.
