I realize that the dev kernels are just that, but to have the entire system not boot on a whim of ACPI's strikes me as a bit counterproductive...  (my $0.02, refundable upon request :-)

This should be fixed properly in the next kernel that Arjan pushes out.
Binary search on patches since the last working kernel and first broken
one took a while, but it turned out to be something (sort of) trivial.
