OK, I'll try to take a look at it. But this is a future work;
meanwhile, can we still extend acpidump in a way I propose. I have the
updated patch that applies on top of the -CURRENT tree after the recent
ACPICA import, but I have some troubles with 'make depend' inside
usr.sbin/acpi/acpidb, so once I'll resolve them and test the stuff with
full buildworld -- I'll post the patch as an update.

Haven't looked at the source yet, so probably the question is very dumb,
but nevertheless: what do you mean by "acpisrc'ified"?
And a general question: is there a VCS repository for the pmtools, or at
least the download location with snapshots/releases? My Google-fu fails
on this and moblin.org doesn't seem to have this stuff available.
Thanks!
