Eric,
Thanks for taking the time to have a look at this.

What do you mean by "could be written as 's/eth/wlan/g'"?

I removed the sections Loopback Functions and Gateway Functions from
rc.hostap. I also removed the entry for the default gateway from
rc.hostap.conf.

Am I right to think that DEBUG_ETH_UP="no" can be removed from
rc.hostap.conf as well?

Now, about that script...

Regards,
Edafe
