I wonder whether you really built from the Debian-patched sources (by
running debian/bin/test-patches or debian/rules build or similar) or the
upstream source.

In Linux 3.2 you can enable either CONFIG_BCMA (bcma bus driver,
supporting the b43 driver) or CONFIG_BRCMSMAC (brcmsmac driver) but not
both.  Debian has a patch that resolves this conflict, and they are both
enabled.  However, if you don't apply that patch then you need to make
sure CONFIG_BCMA is disabled before you can enable CONFIG_BRCMSMAC.
