No, ACPI is not required for interrupt sharing... So it might work ;-)

Have you tried my patch? I'm running a kernel with this patch, ACPI enabled and "pci=noacpi". 16 IRQ's won't be enough for me, too, as you can see here:
CPU0 0: 348795 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 627 IO-APIC-edge i8042 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 4: 5 IO-APIC-edge serial 8: 2 IO-APIC-edge rtc 9: 0 IO-APIC-edge acpi 14: 12240 IO-APIC-edge ide0 15: 11 IO-APIC-edge ide1 16: 31827 IO-APIC-level nvidia 17: 1461 IO-APIC-level eth0 18: 4 IO-APIC-level bttv0 19: 13213 IO-APIC-level EMU10K1 21: 11567 IO-APIC-level uhci-hcd, uhci-hcd, uhci-hcd, ehci_hcd
And everything works just fine... (despite my broken BIOS ;-)
