Another fyi, from a March 6th mail to the ACPI4linux list from andy
henroid:

> The changes from the last acpid release are primarily

> additional interpreter functionality, and better
> stability running control methods)
>
> Though not immediately apparent, this is a large

A further acpid update was announced on March 17 also contained mention
of battery handling:

> Changes

> * Cleaned up the build process

> These changes will have little user visible effect.
