There is a related situation where the hook scripts are executed in the
wrong order:
When bringing down the interface via "ifdown", then
/etc/network/if-post-down.d/madwifi is executed before
/etc/network/if-post-down.d/wireless-tools.
In my fresh installation of "etch", this causes strange error messages
on "ifdown", since the "wireless-tools" script tries to reset the ESSID
and encryption settings... but the interface is already gone:
> Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
> SET failed on device ath0 ; No such device.
> Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
> SET failed on device ath0 ; No such device.
So I would suggest that the post-down-script is also renamed to
"zzz-madwifi".
