As far as I can tell, this bug (and bug #479096 in libacpi), make
battery-stat fail to work on the current kernels in Debian.  As this
make the battery-stat package almost completely useless, I raise the
severity of this bug to grave.

As for options on how to move on, I suspect rewriting battery-stat as
a script and dropping the C daemon as I suggested in bug #720338 is
the best way forward.  The task at hand do not really need much code.
