I see this in arp_announce():=20
KP: arp_announce() ifp->if_addr =3D 0

So that explains why we panic in 'lladdr =3D IF_LLADDR(ifp);=E2=80=99.

I=E2=80=99ve done a very quick hack:
diff --git a/sys/netinet/if_ether.c b/sys/netinet/if_ether.c
index 2214542..9b25356 100644
--- a/sys/netinet/if_ether.c
+++ b/sys/netinet/if_ether.c

        }
        IF_ADDR_RUNLOCK(ifp);

-       lladdr =3D IF_LLADDR(ifp);
-       for (i =3D 0; i < cnt; i++) {
-               arp_announce_addr(ifp, head + i, lladdr);
+       printf("KP: %s() ifp =3D %p\n", __FUNCTION__, ifp);
+       printf("KP: %s() ifp->if_addr =3D %p\n", __FUNCTION__, =
ifp->if_addr);
+
+       if (ifp->if_addr) {
+               printf("KP: %s() ifp->if_addr->ifa_addr =3D %p\n", =
__FUNCTION__, ifp->if_addr->ifa_addr);
+               lladdr =3D IF_LLADDR(ifp);
+               for (i =3D 0; i < cnt; i++) {
+                       arp_announce_addr(ifp, head + i, lladdr);
+               }
        }
        free(head, M_TEMP);
 }

With this patch the device boots. I haven=E2=80=99t been able to verify =
if everything works because of a different issue ("Shared object =
"lib80211.so.1" not found, required by =E2=80=9Cifconfig=E2=80=9D=E2=80=9D=
, no doubt just a small problem with the freebsd-wifi-build scripts).
