Comment (by kelmo):
well, it seems no matter what i am doing with patched wlanconfig, after
destroying the default sta VAP, and creating a new sta VAP, it is always
"ath0" no matter what name I attempt to give it.
{{{
# wlanconfig ath0 destroy
# wlanconfig wifoo create nounit wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
wifoo
# ifconfig -a
ath0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0F:B5:A4:8D:01
