Oh, that's much more than I've expected.
Probably because CONFIG_AP pulls quite a lot of stuff and isn't
enabled in wpad-basic. I thought that'd be the same symbols as already
contained in hostapd and hence the multi-call wpad would not contain
them twice... Possibly my imagination of what actually comes out of
the linker and compiler was a bit naiiv in that regard.
