I think no output with "-v" means that the module was already loaded
before the command was run. Maybe you could try to unload it ("modprobe
-rv b43") and then reload it. If that does not lead to any meaningful
messages in the syslog or the dmesg output then I really don't know how
to proceed. Looking at the source code, it seems that there should
be a message about loading the firmware for both success and failure.
Sorry, I had not unloaded the module. Here it is:

Are you sure that your custom kernel is OK?
After there is NOW a Debian kernel version 2.6.24 with these modules
built in, did I install the Debian "linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64", which
is running since.
So /sbin/ifconfig still only shows one network interface (and lo)? What
happens if you run "udevtrigger" with the module loaded, do you get any
new entries in the persistent-net-rules file?
NO, nothing has been added by several runs of "udevtrigger" with and
without options, whereas I am not sure, how to give the --attr-match
option correctly and if --action="add".
And after deleting the persistent-net.rules file again, it was
regenerated with only the wired ethernet (eth0) only.
