"bcm43xx: Firmware: no support for microcode extracted from version 4.x binary drivers" with FW from wl_apsta.o

Hello all,
I gave the current wireless-dev git tree a try to get some exposure
to the new mac80211 stack. I have a HP nx6325 with what lspci call a

Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4310 UART (rev 01) 

Compiling and installing the kernel worked without a problem, but the
bcm43xx driver complains with the message in the subject line. The
full dmesg log:

The firmware is from the openwrt archive suggested under http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/bcm43xx

Now I'm at somewhat lost. Is there an even newer firmware (I tried the one from the NDIS bcmwl5.sys as well)?

Thanks in advance and kind regards
