A better explanation:
Although proper setup appears to be set at the wdistconfig screens the interface 
is not initialized.
Not only wireless params are not set but the ip address is not set and the 
interface is not turned on.
That's why I need to add the followinf lines at startup.
Both cards are senao NL-2511CD+EX2 w/PCI adapter, netcs0 is wmp11 and 
cardctlident reports the following:

# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
  product info: "INTERSIL", "HFA384x/IEEE", "Version 01.02", ""
  manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
  function: 6 (network)
Socket 1:
  product info: "INTERSIL", "HFA384x/IEEE", "Version 01.02", ""
  manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
  function: 6 (network)
