Thank you.
This is an issue that I'll need to chase down with our upstream. In the
mean time while work on this/bring it to upstream's attention this should
circumvent the issue:
diff --git a/libexec/rc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant b/libexec/rc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant

I'll have more questions later (need to start working on another job) but
I'd like to learn more about your configuration to understand why it works
at boot for myself and phlip@ and not for you and the others here on
-current who have experienced the same issue. Understanding what triggers
this will go a long way to resolving it.
(cc'd philip@)
BTW, my laptop is configured so that wlan0 (iwn0) and bge0 are members of
lagg0. Whereas on my sandbox wlan0 (ath0) is used directly.
