known, the stable queue for 2.6.24 has a nr of b43 patches:
:~/src/stable-queue/queue-2.6.24$ ls -1 | grep b43
b43-drop-packets-we-are-not-able-to-encrypt.patch
b43-fix-dma-slot-resource-leakage.patch
b43-fix-suspend-resume.patch
b43legacy-drop-packets-we-are-not-able-to-encrypt.patch
b43legacy-fix-dma-slot-resource-leakage.patch
b43legacy-fix-pio-crash.patch
b43legacy-fix-suspend-resume.patch
b43-reject-new-firmware-early.patch


i'm waiting for 2.6.24.1, this will of course get pushed out soon.
