Ah, I found the solution with Don Google...  I have now in CURRENT to do:

# ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0
# /etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant start wlan0 

or via /etc/rc.conf:

wlans_ath0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP"

and the interface wlan0 comes up fine and get in my home office the IP
with DHCP; will test this the other day in the Wifi zone where RELENG_7 does
not get IP with DHCP;

thx so far;
