My point was only that the fbsd wi driver does not appear to allow the
creation of a service set as the original poster wanted to do, therefore
to use IBSS mode you have to have a WavePointII.  From the current 
wicontrol man page:

snip---------------------

Allow the station to create a service set (IBSS). Permitted values are 0
(don't create IBSS) and 1 (enable creation of IBSS). The default is 0.

Note: this option is provided for experimental purposes only: enabling the
creation of an IBSS on a host system doesn't appear to actually work.
