BTW, I tried to recompile your dsl with iasl version 20040220.

Since it has:
Processor (CPU1, 0x01, 0x00000410, 0x07)

I expected that the compilation failed because of the length of 7,
or at least a warning.  But threre was nothing.
Therefore I consider that iasl break ACPI 2.0c, 16.2.3.3.1.17 for
the definition of the ASL ProcessorTerm token.

Of course, that is only a minor issue, but well, since there were some
bios developper documentation broken in that regard, it should be fine
to get at least a warning.

Bob, could you please add this check?

Thanks,
