See the broadcom-sta-dkms Debian package instead, and the work that has been done in Debian to autodetect the correct drivers at boot time (which will allow us to install the broadcom-sta drivers in Tails without breaking support for currently supported hardware): https://bugs.debian.org/748679 https://bugs.debian.org/749109 This is tracked in the Tails bug tracker already: https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7798 So, the next thing to do is to build a Tails ISO with broadcom-sta-dkms and live-config 4.x (both pulled from sid), and see if that works. IMO, anything else is a waste of time, since it will only result in "fixing" the problem for one single user, whereas many users need this to work.
