That's great.
Please make sure you have:
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG=y
enabled and boot with cpufreq.debug=1
You should see this message then:
     cpufreq_printk("CPU %d: _PPC is %d - frequency %s limited\n", pr->id,
             (int)ppc, ppc ? "" : "not");             
at boot up (when processor driver gets loaded) and later when you plug/unplug
AC.
When you get a "not limited" at boot up, there is something fishy with your
BIOS and you should provide acpidump output.
If this is the case you could try avoid autoloading then by adding:
blacklist acpi-cpufreq
blacklist processor
blacklist thermal
to /etc/modprobe.conf and try to load acpi-cpufreq (which in turn should load
processor) later after some more acpi drivers got loaded...

If _PPC is not 0 at boot up, but no limit gets applied to bios_limit cpufreq
sysfs file, there is a kernel bug.
