I'm not entirely surprised -- a quick look I took at sys/dev/iwn seemed
to indicate to me that whiule iwn(4) could whine about the switch, it
didn't have much in the way of ability to actually provide information
about that status in some other way (e.g., a non-zero return from
attempt to mess with the device).  But I don't claim extensive expertise
in that area.

:-}  That, or decide to ignore the silly messages....  Noted, thanks.
