Excellent.  compiled and appears working.  It does however have
different values than the old system for some of the sysctl variables.
 I get

hw.acpi.battery.life: 98
hw.acpi.battery.time: 0
hw.acpi.battery.state: 0
hw.acpi.battery.units: 1
hw.acpi.battery.info_expire: 5

when plugged in.  But used to get time as -1 when plugged in and I
think state may have been 1 when plugged in before (less sure about
that than the time).  Thanks for the enormous amount of work your
efforts are very much appreciated,

Eric
