On my system, that is started by hotplug, which calls
/etc/init.d/net.<interface> start to bring up networking.  Note that
/etc/init.d/hotplug does nothing these days...hotplug is just enabled
automatically by the kernel.  So either you should rc-update del
net.wlan0, or you will have to modify /etc/jhotplug/net.agent to your
liking.

Of course, if it is built-in, then ignore everything I just said!
