I did some experimentation and discovered that the problem, although appearing to be driver-based was actually being driven by wpa_supplicant. I'm not sure exactly why the problem was occuring, but apparently having a wpa_supplicant.conf file present while using network-manager (NetworkManager) can result in the periodic bizaar disconnect/reconnect loop problem I was experiencing.
I'm hoping that the fix is not temporary, but I'll keep an eye on it and report any changes to the list. I suspect if others are having good success with their broadcom 4306 in their powerbooks with the b43 driver in 2.6.24.x, that my problems were of my own making (network-manager and wpa_supplicant).
