I managed to prevent these APIC errors flooding my dmesg by removing the
ohci1394 module.

However I only get battery when I include irqpoll on the kernel command
line.

This is regardless of if I use a fixed DSDT.

This is a definite regression from Dapper for my laptop (Ferrari 4005).
With Dapper neither irqpoll or DSDT were not required for battery state 
(however I think I was required to run the k8 kernel).

Removing and re-inserting the battery module does not help.

"acpi -V" returns:
     Thermal 1: ok, 37.0 degrees C
  AC Adapter 1: on-line

"lshal | grep battery" returns:
  battery.present = false  (bool)
  info.capabilities = {'battery'} (string list)
  info.category = 'battery'  (string)
  battery.type = 'primary'  (string)
  linux.acpi_path = '/proc/acpi/battery/BAT1'  (string)

"cat /proc/acpi/battery/*/state" returns:
present:                 no
