Martin: Is /usr/bin always in PATH? If yes, I agree this change has no impact to current user.

This older IASL compilers fail to build recent ACPI tables. We could expect more regular update of the ACPI spec after its governance moved to a larger organisation (the UEFI Forum). Engineers would need to update their IASL compiler more often. The OS environment variable IASL_PREFIX allows to define a specific IASL compiler. Otherwise, the binary in the PATH would be used.
