Subject:   Is "bssid" parameter to ifconfig supported with ath?

I know at some point I was able to do e.g.:

	ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 wlanmode hostap bssid
	ifconfig wlan1 create wlandev ath0 wlanmode hostap bssid

and end up with different MAC addresses on wlan0 and wlan1. Recently =
(and possibly for some time) that has not been the case. All wlan =
interfaces end up with the MAC address of the parent device, which =
(obviously) causes problems if actually using more than one vap. Using =
"wlanaddr" and a manual address instead works as expected.
