What is the output of iwicontrol iwi0 -r ?

Damien Bergamini just commited a few fixes yesterday for the iwi(4)
driver in -CURRENT.

The behaviour is still unworkable : I can use tcpdump(8) on the
interface and see various incoming ARP requests or VRRP multicast
packets and I can see outgoing packets with bpf(4), but I think they
don't leave the wireless adatpter as I can't see any packets from it
on peers.

As far as I can tell, this driver is not longer updated, the developpement
is done in BSD source trees (look at the file modification date).
