Question on [HT40+][HT40-] on channel 11.

I'm using the following configuration.  My plan was to allow hostapd to figure
out if it needed to do ht40+ v/s ht40-, but it seems it tries ht40+ in this
case, and fails and exits.  Is this a bug in hostapd or am I just using it wrong?

vap0: IEEE 802.11 Configured HT40 secondary channel (15) not found from the channel list of current mode (1) IEEE 802.11g
vap0: IEEE 802.11 Configured channel (11) not found from the channel list of current mode (1) IEEE 802.11g
vap0: IEEE 802.11 Hardware does not support configured channel

If I remove the [HT40+], then it works fine.

Thanks,
Ben
