Probably the netcfg package, wireless.c:
| int netcfg_wireless_show_essids(struct debconfclient *client, struct netcfg_interface *interface)
[…]
|         /* Create list of available ESSIDs. */
|         for (network = network_list.result; network; network = network->next) {
|             if (!exists_in_network_list(network_list, network)) {
|                 strcat(buffer, network->b.essid);
|                 strcat(buffer, ", ");
|             }
|         }

Mraw,
KiBi.
