acpi-20021101 broken

Hi!

I just tried out acpi-20021101 (patch against 2.4.20-rc1), but unfortunately it 
seems to be broken. When booting, I see some kenel messages (I think I could 
identify the processor-determination) and then the kernel seems to run into an 
endless loop writing tons of messages to the console (nearly impossible to 
read); but they all seem to have the same structure:

a few words "-" four digits "["for digits"]" "["two digits"]" some text ":" 
some text

The first four digits displayed are "0001" almost the whole time.

The system does not lock in this loop, but a warm-reboot is not accepted.

acpi-20021022 worked on the system (but as mentioned with /proc/thermal 
and /proc/processor missing).

If I can help somehow finding the reason for this bug, please let me know.

PS.: The system boots as expected (but without acpi) with acpi=off specified as 
boot-parameter.
