Which iasl Version is needed for the ACPI compilation and testing? I have 
an IASL installed on my build machine, but when trying to compile the ACPI 
stuff, it fails. Maybe it's just too old, but I didn't find a way to 
disable the iasl access. Must I uninstall iasl on my machine to get qemu 
compiled again?
The IASL version is:
Intel ACPI Component Architecture
ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20060912 [Dec 20 2006]
Copyright (C) 2000 - 2006 Intel Corporation
Supports ACPI Specification Revision 3.0a

Thanks for your support.

Best regards,
