I would have thought any third party code in the /sys/src tree is considered
to be a "Contribution" as defined in the original Lucent license, and is
therefore covered by the new license without the need of a new agreement.

As regards the bcm kernel specifically, note that files in what's called
"4e-latest" are about 7 years out of date, and the currently maintained
source is in contrib/miller/9/bcm. That too is a "Contribution" and covered
by the new license. I hope this can be merged in to the ongoing p9f repository
if/when one is set up.
