OK, so how did you do it? I get this sort of problem:
freelap# wicontrol -i wi0 -p 1
wicontrol: SIOCSWAVELAN: Input/output error
freelap#
But this (seems) to work
freelap# wicontrol -i wi0 -o

As the machine boots (with an ethernet card and the WL100 already inserted)
I get (from /var/log/messages)

By the way - when you say current what exactly do you mean? I see to have:
* $FreeBSD: src/sys/i386/isa/if_wi.c,v 1.18.2.5 2000/09/07 17:10:41 wpaul
Exp $
Which came with the 4.2 release ISO download.
There is no mention of Harris, Intersil or Prism in this file (call me
suspicious but...)
