netstart, if has no args, runs thru the whole hostname/bridgename
shebang. you can also pass it a list of interfaces (might not have
checked, but netstart(8) has a manpage).
for debug stuffs, you could do, say:
$ sudo sh -v /etc/netstart wi0
little easier to manage and no worries about having to edit
/etc/netstart. (sometimes -x is nice instead or addition to/of -v)

probably not it, but does it matter if you do an 'up' on the first
line of hostname.wi0 and then the inet line next?
i don't have a candidate wireless system at hand to try the ifconfig
commandline out on :(

The up doesn't make a difference if I add it before the inet line. The
output of sh -v /etc/netstart is pretty lengthy, but I can post it
somewhere if someone would like to take a look.
