Comment 34 for bug 85099

To clarify my last point, you're right that this is not a bug in bcm43xx-fwcutter. The 'bug' is in the kernel itself which contains support only for v4 firmware, thus dropping support for the many people who have older broadcom cards.

If you want to reclassify this bug to the kernel, that's fine. I'm just hoping it get fixed before release. Otherwise I have to start investigating if I can replace the wireless card in my laptop. Yuck.
