Right Greg, this is not only an ACPI patch,
but a patch that touches the ACPICA core.
Lets get Bob to see if it applies to the latest upstream ACPICA code.

Andrew,
Do you give Intel permission to accept this patch under
both licenses on the top of the file, such that we can
re-distribute it in ACPICA to all the OSs that use ACPICA?

(hey, and check out the spiffy new acpica home page: http://acpica.org/ )

thanks,
-Len
