You can also use the firmware of some previous version of Mac OS X.
OS X "Panther" 10.3.7 for Mac Mini has a firmware correctly "cuttable" by Slackintosh 12 stock version of bcm43xx-fwcutter (it outputs a warning because Mac Mini doesn't have 802.11a, only has 802.11b/g).
By the way, I was also able to use 10.4.9 Airport firmware (Mac Mini again).
Here, only Apple Powerbook G4 airport firmware gives that error (but I did not update fwcutter as Marco suggested).
