First of all:
Please open a new thread instead of answering to a digest _and_ delete
unnecessary text when you answer within an existing thread :-)

Now to your question:

>     temp.menu.2 = TMENU
>     temp.menu.2 {
>         wrap = |</ul>',' |*| |</ul>','  |*| |</ul>
>     }

This doesn't make any sense, because optionSplit is only available for menu
items like NO, ACT, IFSUB but not for TMENU or GMENU.
So, what you want should be created within such a menu item.
You can use allWrap for the first part of the <ul>, since it offers stdWrap
properties to assign the value of field "alias" to the id.
The closing </ul> _and_ the comma should be set via wrapItemAndSub, because
this will make sure, the closing </ul> will be set _after_ the menu of
subpages.

temp.menu = HMENU
temp.menu {
    special = directory
    special.value = 40543
    1 = TMENU
    1 {
        noBlur = 1
        expAll = 1
        wrap = |
        NO {
            doNotShowLink = 1
            allWrap.dataWrap = <ul id="subnav_{field:alias}">
            wrapItemAndSub = |*||*| |<ul>',' || |<ul>
        }
    }
    2 = TMENU
    2 {
        noBlur = 1
        expAll = 1
        NO {
            wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
            stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = 1
        }
    }
}

Just some side notes:
There is no "stdWrap = TEXT"
There is no "expAll=1" for menu items
"doNotShowLink=1" should be enough so you can kick "doNotLinkIt=1"
instead of allStdWrap.insertData use allWrap.dataWrap (insertData is useful
for the replacement of multiple variables in different lines only)
