Intel released their 20001020 update today, so I've updated the megapatch 
accordingly.  This release should fix some of the interpreter problems 
that people have been seeing.  See Intel's page for release notes on their
changes.

In addition, there are a few changes to the FreeBSD code:

 - Fix the use of acpi_parse_resources (must be called on demand by a
   child driver for now)
 - Fix acpi_set_resource to apply the resource to the right ivars.
 - Scan the \_SI_ scope as well for devices
 - Disable PnP BIOS scanning.

With some nasty hacks (ability to ignore subset of namespace, in 
particular), I finally managed to get the code to suspend/resume and 
shutdown correctly on my Dell.  When I've merged this in a slightly more 
general form, I think I'll be ready to commit.

Please note that I've left out the infinite loop detection patch, as it 
doesn't work for me at all.  I think there's still something wrong with 
loop handling though, but I need more traces to be sure, and I'll be 
looking at this tomorrow.

Again, sorry for the delay.  Please let me know if I've missed anything, 
or if this is looking good enough to commit with.
