There does seem to be. For example /Documentation/video4linux/extract_xc3028.pl 
is still around. The program itself is free software, but its sole purpose 
appears to be extracting non-free firmware out of a Windows driver so that it 
can be used on GNU/Linux. There also appears to be some stuff still hanging out 
in /firmware as well.
