Yes, it does.  I'd suggest using hostapd as your AP daemon and the
nl80211 hostap driver.  While it's still under pretty heavy development,
it all should be fairly usable.  Johannes Berg would probably have a
more up-to-date description of the status of the hostapd nl80211 driver
and mac80211 AP-mode support.
