Some more information:

The kernel loading process gets to a point where ACPI is about to get 
initialized. I'm currently tracing a little bit and so far it ends up that 
AcpiEnable() in "contrib/dev/acpica/events/evxfevnt.c" never returns. 
Somewhere inside AcpiHwSetMode() something triggers a hardware condition, 
which I cannot see where ends up. Any lights go up?
