Yep, it works now:

rc.conf:
wlans_rum0="wlan0"
create_args_wlan0="wlanmode hostap"
network_interfaces="lo0 rl0 wlan0" # List of network interfaces (or "auto").
ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"   # default loopback device configuration.
ifconfig_rl0="inet 172.27.4.219 netmask 255.255.248.0"
ifconfig_wlan0="inet 10.0.0.1/24 ssid OFFICE wepmode on wepkey 
0xf00baaf00baaf00baaf00baaf0  weptxkey 1 channel 1"
defaultrouter="172.27.2.116"
