well if you folow the -current mailing list you'll see lots and lots of 
problems and discussions with acpi on -current, so I'd say it's not really 
ready for MFC'ing.  That's just based on subjective counts of the mails going 
by, but somebody else may have more useful information.
lots of discussions on it also means it is improving, so i guess be patient,
