It doesn't look like it's going to work so well without cpufrequtils.
There's a new homepage with a few new releases at:

  http://chw.populus.org/rub/7

The latest 0.6.4 has an INSTALL file that says it requires cpufrequtils.
I also see a "cpufreqnextgovernor" script that uses binaries from
sys-power/cpufrequtils.

Glancing at the code, it might still be able to read the current
frequency from /proc/cpuinfo or somewhere under /sys without
cpufrequtils (can you confirm?), but at best that leaves the plugin
half-broken without an update.
