Probably the addition of the following line in acpi.c did it:
    AcpiGbl_EnableInterpreterSlack = TRUE;
The version in the CVS already has this feature, but IIRC the code
for interpreter slack has a bug in that version, which was fixed
in the later version, so I gave up committing this simple fix
(but somehow I can't find the description in changes.txt or mail archives).

I saw this and am trying to find how to fix it.

So, did it make it into the login prompt?  Also let me know if you
had to use the driver built with ACPI_USE_LOCAL_CACHE=yes.

Thanks.
