It's mine ;))  Though I hadn't looked at the newer ACPI-CA yet.

Will try.  I had tried to subscribe to the mailing list at
  http://lists.acpica.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
but their host certificate is revoked(!).  Moreover, list archives end
at February 2009.  May be there are some other points of discuission
about ACPI-CA?

Bugzilla seems to work and I had applied for the account.  Will see...

Thanks!  So, I think that I will split the diff into ACPI-CA part
and to the FreeBSD-specific part.  I'll try to push the first one
to the upstream and the second will wait for its inclusion and
import.  I foresee that this will last for some months.  Perhaps
once the patch will be accepted upstream it can be also integrated
to the FreeBSD sources (and dropped with the next ACPI-CA import)?
