"Błąd"="Error" (in polish).

Note that you can always get the latest ACPI patch and drop it directly onto Linus' tree here:
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/test/2.6.20/

I'm suspecting that Maciej misapplied the -mm patch somehow:

box:/usr/src/foo> grep acpi_pointer include/acpi/acpixf.h
box:/usr/src/foo>
