Other way round I would say :-)

wpa_supplicant must finish before the network starts, if it doesn't then
the wireless interface won't come up. This was a problem years ago
(Fedora 7 or so?) when the SYSV scripts started networking first, and
then wireless. The fix was, as said, to start wpa_supplicant first.

However, this all worked fine with F17 (and systemd) and the starting
order was sorted out a long time ago.
