There's:
http://medan.cinnamonpirate.com/pool/non-free/l/linux-extramodules-2.6.27.1-medan/linux-extramodules-2.6.27.1-medan_2.6.27.1.medan.20090205-5_mipsel.deb
which doesn't include any source code, but I don't think it is non-free.
The battery stuff comes from:
http://dev.lemote.com/git?p=ec_module.git;a=summary
(I'll get this merged into the gNewSense builds)
as for the wifi changes I have no idea. I guess D-- patched the stock
driver in Linux. Perhaps you can ask him about it?

The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us. We will decide when (and
how) you may access your data; but nobody's threatening your freedom: we
still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."
