Be aware you'll probably get a bunch of long-term board users telling you this is a bad idea. The AP mode is apparently described as a 'mini-AP' in the Broadc^WCypress docs, and it is limited: the number of clients it will support is something like 8 (and if you connect any more, they'll start fighting and randomly dropping out), and the AP must be on the same channel as the station's AP, which has RF interference implications. If you're on a 2.4GHz network, and you've got Bluetooth anywhere in the mix, you're basically doomed.
With all that said, it isn't hard to do:
then run up hostapd on uap0, and configure a dhcpd of some sort to listen on that interface. There's probably some modern way of doing it all, but that works for me.
