Comment (by mikebrady@…):
Replying to [comment:7 nbd]:
> I'm beginning to think that this might have nothing to do with those
commits. Your config is buggy. You selected wpa_supplicant, even though
the default config already has wpad-mini. I think because of that, it is
overwriting the wpad multicall binary with the wpa_supplicant binary, thus
breaking AP mode support.
> Please check
Hmm – not sure about that; wpad-mini isn't selected in make menuconfig and
doesn't show up in the diffconfig listing. If I select it, it does indeed
appear in the diffconfig listing as CONFIG_PACKAGE_wpad-mini=y.
Unselecting Network > wpa-supplicant and selecting Network > wpad-mini
makes a tiny difference: the list of interfaces includes wlan0, but it's
still not possible to associate with an existing WiFi. Here's the output
from ifconfig:

Also, on the default /etc/config/wireless configuration, it doesn't appear
to start a WiFi access point.
