I'd say we should not set WIRELESS_NICK to the hostname when it is
empty; or is this required for a driver to always provide a nick?
My fix would look like this at the moment:

Note, that the run_iw_tool function skips all calls with empty $ARG.
Helmut, OK?
I'll apply this fix to my queue at home:mtomaschewski:11.1/sysconfig
on build.opensuse.org and let you know when this fix is available as
test rpm.
