I updated the laptop to r335884 last night, and 'service wpa_supplicant 
start wlan0' doesn't succeed any more.

kernel is supposed to create the network interface 'run0', but it 
doesn't. This is the immediate reason why wpa_supplicant fails.

The non-creation of 'run0' is a regression. I don't know of any workaround.


The steps 'mergemaster -p' and 'mergemaster' were done during the 
upgrade, so /etc is updated.
