Ok, I have pciehp in /etc/modules too. The module pciehp is 
loaded at boot in Xandros too, if I remember well.
I also copied the file /etc/modprobe.d/pcie from Xandros:

options pciehp pciehp_force=1
install pciehp /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install pciehp pciehp_force=1; /sbin/modprobe ath_pci

Yes, this make sense. Removing and reloading pciehp is not 
required as far I know. In fact this is the Xandros 
/etc/acpi/wlan.sh:

    echo 1 > /proc/acpi/asus/wlan
    sleep 1
    if [ -z "`grep ^ath_pci /proc/modules`" ]; then
        modprobe ath_pci
    fi
    sleep 1
    /sbin/ifconfig ath0 up

I notice just now, another sleep after enabling the wlan acpi!
