The hostapd package Makefile says:

PKG_NAME:=hostapd
PKG_VERSION:=20120428
PKG_RELEASE:=1
PKG_REV:=1f0cc27eb98f7d1af9c64d0752238184cbdb9a24

PKG_SOURCE:=$(PKG_NAME)-$(PKG_VERSION).tar.bz2
PKG_SOURCE_URL:=git://w1.fi/srv/git/hostap.git

Can't look at ip output right now as I'm still at work and the
AP is switched off.
