We did have some APM *detection* changes, and maybe APM wasn't even detected for you before, or it was detected differently. That would be due to the bootup changes, I'm Cc'ing Peter Anvin (and the kernel mailing list, in case somebody else see a pattern to this).

Well, I did have exactly one bug report about APM, and that was a user who had inadvertently flipped his CONFIG_APM setting (from on to off in his particular case -- it was a 10-year-old machine without ACPI.)
