I've got a -current (6.0) based nanobsd with a web gui strongly 
reminiscent of m0n0/pfsense
that I'm putting together.

Why 6.0?   WPA and a bunch of other stuff that you *really want* on a 
wireless device (such
as an AP).

Why nanobsd?  That way I get to build from source and/or use the 
freebsd packages system to
add in functionality, like OLSR or the 802.1x authenticator, etc.   
i.e. its closer to freebsd than 'WiFiBSD'.

Sans some functionality, it should be trivial to backport to 5.4.
