However, this appears now in /var/log/messages during boot:

Jan 11 01:02:18 mb-aw1n-bsd kernel: iwi0: timeout waiting for (null) 
firmware initialization to complete
Jan 11 01:02:18 mb-aw1n-bsd kernel: iwi0: could not load boot firmware 
(null)

However, after boot wi-fi works correctly.  I'll test more tomorrow..
