SubjectRE: Serious bug in ACPI enumeration
Date
This is because at this stage of ACPI development, we want to be as strict
as possible w.r.t. AML, to expose bugs in the software.

That said, maybe it's better to just emit a warning here, instead of
failing. I'll bring it up with the team.

Regards -- Andy
