Okay, I had to modprobe rfkill-input and rfkill by hand, didn't
realize that. Hopefully that'll be automatic soon. Regardless, upon
doing so, and loading ssb and b43, it sees my card, but is still not
fully functional. iwconfig sees:

(eth0 is ethernet, eth1 doesn't exist -- usually it's the wireless.)

`ifconfig` doesn't see eth1 or wlan0_rename.

What else might I be doing wrong?

Your udev rules are screwed up. In /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, you should have a line that looks like

SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:1a:73:6b:28:5a", ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="eth1"

with the MAC address for your device. You probably have the ATTR{type}=="1" clause missing.
