I'm pretty sure b43-fwcutter is just to make the b43 module work. This
bug however is about making the wl module work. wl (bcmwl) should
already have built-in firmware because it's a proprietary driver. Though
using b43 (hence removing bcmwl) might be a feasible workaround for some.

Also, isn't the package firmware-b43-installer designed to do the
firmware cutting for you?
