Hrm, that's new.
My net.lo is not a symlink.

But I'm still on baselayout-1.12

You can confirm those are all configuration files?  If not, please provide
the list...

They are all in /etc/ (including many init.d) except for:

/sbin/runscript.sh
/sbin/functions.sh
/lib64/rcscripts/sh/net.sh
/sbin/depscan.sh

Some of them show incorrect md5sum instead of wrong mtime.

It's possible, albeit unlikely, that the two modules lines are conflicting,
try removing both of them and adding:
modules_ath0=( "wpa_supplicant" "!plug")
above your config_ath0 line.

I changed that with no luck.

This may also be some behavior that is wpa_supplicant specific and I've
never used that particular piece of software.

Sorry, that should have been:
grep -Ev '^[[:space:]]*(#.*)?$' /etc/conf.d/wireless

I actually don't have that file at all.

You should just be able to type it in or cut/copy and paste from my
original email.  bash (and indeed most shells) don't interpret the input
from the command line significantly different than the content of a script
file.

If I use spaces instead of line breaks so I can put it all on one line
it doesn't seem to work out.  I'm missing something here.

:(
Sorry, I'm just not that wireless savvy, but everything looks fine to me.
Again, keep in mind that I've never used wpa_supplicant so I don't know if
that changes things.
