Well, I added the changes to eval and, for ease of use, BRIDGE="br0",

starting then network then results in:

# service network start
Hint: you may set mandatory devices in /etc/sysconfig/network/config
Setting up network interfaces:
eth0 device: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express
Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 02)
eth0 IP address: 0.0.0.0/32
eth0 done
eth1 device: Intel Corporation PRO/100 VE Network Connection (rev 02)
eth1 IP address: 0.0.0.0/32
eth1 done
wlan0 device: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network
Connection (rev 02)
wlan0 starting wpa_supplicant
ioctl[SIOCGIFINDEX]: No such device
Failed to open l2_packet connection for the bridge interface 'br0'
wlan0 IP address: 0.0.0.0/32
wlan0 done
br0
br0 Ports: [eth0] [eth1] [wlan0]
br0 forwarddelay (see man ifcfg-bridge) ... ready
br0 Starting DHCP4 client. . . . . . . .
br0 DHCP4 continues in background
br0 waiting
Setting up service network . . . . . . . . . . done
SuSEfirewall2: Setting up rules from /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 ...
SuSEfirewall2: Warning: no default firewall zone defined, assuming 'ext'
SuSEfirewall2: using default zone 'ext' for interface wmaster0
SuSEfirewall2: batch committing...
SuSEfirewall2: Firewall rules successfully set

So, as you indicated it may be to early to start wpa_supplicant at this point
in the flow of events.

Killing the wpa_supplicant and restarting manually as per #3 does the trick.
