(That is why I happened to know about it so quickly - incidentally I'm sorry for my snappy tone last time.) Are you doing all the "wlan" stuff that CURRENT now requires for wireless cards - for example, in my rc.conf I have: wlans_iwn0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP" and all subsequent ifconfig and dhclient commands are done using wlan0. (And also, my guess is that the iwn driver you were using was a backport to FreeBSD-STABLE, which doesn't have all this wlan stuff, and hence is incompatible with CURRENT.)
