netcfg tests whether an interface is wireless by checking whether the
return value of iw_get_basic_config is 0.  The check is in wireless.c,
which you can find in the netcfg source package.ce 

The first argument is returned from iw_sockets_open, the second is
"plip0", and the third is the address of a wireless_config struct on the
stack.
