It depends on the problem. Please try r35559 or later first. It has
newer ACPI which tries to repair common ACPI implementation mistakes.
If that fails file a bug-report. We need bug-reports! We will probably
report this back to the ACPI implementors and see what they say.
Otherwise we can try providing a workaround or decide to disable ACPI
on that machine.

ACPICA has info for ACPI itself (which made it very easy to start
hacking on ACPI code): http://acpica.org/documentation/
There are some ACPI hardware drivers that are not add to the build.
That might be a starting point. I havn't really looked at this part,
only at ACPI itself. Others have though. It does look like quite fun
programming...
