Many thanks to Dave and Hamish for pointing me in the right direction. Hotplug was already installed, but the firmware wasn't in the source tree. I went hunting and spotted the comment in the Debian ChangeLog.
So...keyspan_usa49WLC_fw.h was dropped in from an old kernel.org 2.4.10 source tree I had lying around. Next, I had to hack out the conditional #IFDEF statement from keyspan.h to make sure the firmware image was #INCLUDED. After a kernel recompile && reinstall - using the snazzy 'make-kpg' command - the serial hub roared into life. Hmm...I can understand Keyspan not wanting to release the driver sources for the chipset, and I can see why the Debian people won't distribute non-GPL code.
