Not yet, there is a patch by Adrian Nida for ath(4) and WAP support*. 
Andrew Atrens said that he got it working for wi(4) too but I've not 
heard anything about ipw(4).

I seem to recal that there were plans for some major change in the 
routing-code and until it's done no other major changes to the 
networking would be committed, but I might be wrong.
