At some point, the open source firmware was no longer installed from the
firmware-b43-*installer packages, which now download the Broadcom
drivers and use b43-fwcutter to install the firmware.    I'm not sure
what happens when the Broadcom STA driver is used, since it contains the
firmware within the driver, and does not require the installation of
firmware in a directory.  Bugs like 1061639 are indicating problems with
bdus/network-manager delays in shutdown, so this sort of delay may be a
contributing factor.
