I too confirm that this bug still exists. I have bcm4306 rev 3 chipset in Linksys WPC54G Notebook Adapter. I did as mentioned in the original report - changed blacklist to enable bcm43xx, blacklist b43 and ssb and modprobe bcm43xx. Then installed bcm43ww-fwcutter using synaptic and hence the firmware. Then (having set up my wireless essid and WPA etc.) wireless worked. However, it still needs essid and WPA set up using iwconfig every bootup to get wireless working.
