this fixes acpid to work with the more recent code from the sourcesforge
ACPI4Linux project, correct?  I'll keep that in mind as I consider including
that patch in the next gentoo-sources kernel.

To Lolo:
No, you don't need that patch for current acpi.
The current patch from the acpi-project works straight ahead with acpid. The
attached patch is only needed for older versions of the acpi-patch.
I hope you will include the acpi-patch.
