With wpa_supplicant the script is run 2 times. Once by you which fires
up wpa_supplicant and once by wpa_cli.sh, which puts up the interface
and runs dhcpcd.
I had this problem once too, and my problem was that a file
/etc/conf.d/net.eth1 existed, which had config_eth1=("null") in it. The
statements in /etc/conf.d/net had no effect then. Maybe that's the same
issue here.- Sascha
