I cannot reproduce your results. For me, the patch works fine.

I did the following:
1. fresh checkout (r 11635)
2. added patch to patches-2.6.25
3. set these options, all others are default:
    target system -> 2.6
    target profile -> no wifi
    kernel modules -> wireless drivers -> b43
4. built
5. flashed wl-500gp
6. brought up wlan0 and got:
