    Right, that seems to be an omission on our part. I'll see if I can
    find time to put it in.

    Interesting. That works, and it interoperates with -p 1 machines.
    There seems to be something "sticky" about making changes to the
    configuration. My best bet is that -p 1 and -p 0 don't make much
    difference if you're running in IBSS mode.
