That's still true of the b43 firmware for older (pre-802.11n) devices,
but the firmware to go with their new driver is now in
linux-firmware.git.

Their *original* offering of that new firmware had a stupid licence --
you could only distribute it if you promised to indemnify and defend
Broadcom from all related third-party lawsuits. They fixed that though,
and I merged it.
