There are a few combinations of join and nwid which don't work corectly
in 6.4, and
I see in ifconfig(8) that setting nwid to an empty string will
connect to any available AP. When using join, and absent any nwid
statement at all, is nwid set to an empty string? Or is it null?

I've run into a strange problem using ifconfig's new join statements.
I have two join lines in /etc/hostname.iwn0, with no nwid statement.
When both of these APs are out of range, it connects to a third,
unmentioned (open) AP. This is a network I've manually joined before,
