They do so frequently and always did this.
The problem in b43 is, that b43 needs to support _all_ ucode
APIs from 5 to x (Dunno where we are right now. somewhere > 15).
That was relatively easy until now, because the API didn't vary a lot
between cores. I don't know what will/did change for latest wireless
features, though. But you already applied some changes to the affecting
code. I don't know how complete that stuff is.
