That's what I would have expected as well, to be honest. But Ubuntu still got reports that it wouldn't happen on some systems even with udev and linux 2.6.22. However, for some reason I'm not familiar with this doesn't actually seem to work for the modalias "acpi*:ACPI0003:*" (which the ac module provides). Right now, /etc/rc2.d/S10acpid loads the module on a standard system. However, that runs after rcS.d/S??checkroot.sh, so it's too late for fsck. I hope that this workaround patch gets obsolete soon, when the kernel/udev get fixed to load it automatically. So if you think that is really belongs to udev/linux and shouldn't be worked around in the meantime, feel free to just close this bug.
