How about this?

unload
set module_path=/boot/kernel.old
boot /boot/kernel.old/kernel

The following is a correct way of doing this:

unload
boot kernel.old

This will load both kernel and modules from the correct place, i.e.
/boot/kernel.old.

The way the loader finds the ACPI module is unsophisticated and needs to
be modified; boot-conf with a non-default path doesn't seem to update the 
module path, so the loader gets the wrong module. 8(
