Well, the CPUFreq addon is not the problem. I tested it and any addon
which exits (I just added a exit(1) to the start of the main function of
addon-acpi) triggers a HAL segfault :-(

And in your case I think that it is ok that the cpufreq addon exits
because there is no CPUFreq driver driver loaded?

Here the addon exists.

In device.c, the code tries to access device->udi, which leads to a
segfault AFAICS.
