Ok.. found some more info from the Kernel Team specs for Natty:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/Specs/KernelNattyConfigReview

They have a general policy to build it in because, "it's hard to do in
userspace". No idea what that means, or why no other distro has
difficulty with building acpi_cpufreq as a module, perhaps something to
do with upstart?

In any case, if that's the policy why not just close this mark as won't
fix and put an end to it.
