Having looked at the source, I assume that those drivers / kernel modules are actually supposed to be a replacement for the firmware.
However, I'm apparently too stupid to get them working. I compiled both modules for my ThinkPad W510 as described in the README files in N0383.Gobi2000Drivers_06182010.tar.gz and also have a /dev/ttyUSB0 device, now, but lsusb still yields:

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 05c6:9204 Qualcomm, Inc.

… instead of 9205. And the network-manager doesn't find any WWAN device.

Unfortunately, there isn't any contact information on codeaurora.org, either, so we're on our own I guess…
