That icon means there is no connection.

You are right, this is an issue specific to the Broadcom drivers and how they report signal strength, and has already been fixed in the development release of Ubuntu.

If you want to test that it is indeed resolved for you (and you are not hiting another bug), you can try the Desktop CD of the development release - Maverick Meerkat. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ .
