which seems to be on the FSF approved list. It's for use in a Thinkpad
where the onboard wifi doesn't have free drivers.

On further testing I can confirm this works nicely on gnewsense, but you
need to build the current linux-libre 2.6.33 kernel.

Excellent.

If you're looking for space to put that information on for future reference, might I suggest the hardware section of our wiki [1]? A hardware compatibility list (with instructions if needed and (direct) shop links if known) would be useful.
