Feel free to do so, also if I would prefer to get acpid fixed/ported to the 
new interface since there are many other tools depending on acpid. 

It would be IMO the best to port acpid. If someone would come up with a patch 
for acpid I guess the maintainer would take it (otherwise we will find a 
solution).
