Thanks for the tip, that sorted it, for the mailing list archive:
I added
wlans_rum0="wlan0"
create_args_wlan0="wlanmode sta country GB"
ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP"
to /etc/rc.conf & that sorted out ipv4 connectivity, to get ipv6 working 
I had to add ipv6_network_interfaces="wlan0" aswell as ipv6_enable="YES" 
otherwise rtsol would not automatically run on the interface & you're 
left with a local link address on wlan0.
