--------------------------+------------------------------
 This is a tiny patch against the latest SVN to optionally tell the Intel
 ACPI library to make a copy of the DSDT during boot. Some BIOSes
 (including mine) replace or corrupt it halfway through booting, confusing
 the kernel and causing booting to fail.
