Since you disabled ipv6, and still have the issue, then ipv6/rtsol
accessing iwn0 instead of wlan0 is not the issue for your instance.

I just replicated your problem with a new set of rc.conf variables on
iwn0 including:

ifconfig_wlan0="country US WPA DHCP" instead of my default:
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP".   I will dig a bit further and see if I can
understand any reason for the country ifconfig setting to cause this
issue (error 35 at boot), but it smells like a bug to me.

Will your wireless card function for you without the "country FR" setting ?
Give it a try regardless of functionality, just to see if the error 35
goes away.

I also notice that attempting to set the country parameter on the
wlanX device after the interface is marked "UP" results in an error
message of SIOCS80211: Device busy

In any case, I suggest that it is time to file a PR.

Good Luck.
