Sound like to be in:

        Device (PCI0)
        {
            Method (_INI, 0, NotSerialized)
            {
                If (CondRefOf (_OSI, Local0))
                {
                    Store (0x07D1, OSYS)
                    \_SB.PHS (0xA5)
                }
                Else
		{
			blablabla
		}

                If (LNot (LGreater (OSYS, 0x07CF)))
                {
                    Store (0x01, ECON)
                    Store (0x00, TMP0)
                    If (LNot (LGreater (Local0, ACTT)))
                                        ^^^^^^

Local0 is not initialized under ACPICA (because there is no _OSI name declared).

I think this is an error in the AML, because Local0 should be left
uninitialized if the CondRefOf() return False.

But we can perhaps assume that in that case Local0 contains 0 (but not for
the interpreter, for a possible override of the table) ?

Bob, please advice.
