Description:
The netcfg example file named wireless-wpa-config is missing a closing double-quote(") on line 5.
Without the closing quote a handled exception displays an error message about finding an unexpected EOF.
I configured netcfg for running from the init scripts(runlevel 3) so unfortunately I don't have the exact error message. By closing the " the error is resolved and netcfg configures perfectly.

Additional info:

Steps to reproduce:
0) pacman -S core/netcfg
1) Copy wireless-wpa-config to the /etc/network.d directory from the etc/network.d/examples directory.
2) In [etc/rc.conf]
Add line NETWORKS=(wireless-wpa-config)
To the DAEMONS list disable 'network' with '!' and include net-profile in the list

3) Reboot
