I recently did some more experimenting and found an workaround that
works for me ("ifconfig scan" still doesn' work):
When I use an old ISC dhclient binary from FreeBSD 5 which ignores the
"no carrier" status and sends the DHCP requests anyway,
I get an IP address from the router and ifconfig shows "status:
associated" afterwards. (and the network works just fine)
Manually setting the IP address seems not work, however (but this
might be also my router...).
