Me too. Not sure what you mean with blacklisting. ohci_hcd depends on ssb, so I can't really prevent ssb from being loaded if I want USB to work. I added this line to /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper to work around the problem:

install ndiswrapper modprobe -r ohci_hcd ssb; modprobe --ignore-install ndiswrapper $CMDLINE_OPTS; modprobe ohci

For the record:
lspci -nn:

bcm43xx doesn't know how to deal with this device, whether ssb is loaded or not. So I'm still stuck with using ndiswrapper. Too bad my wireless network setup is getting even messier now.
