Hi, eugene,
does that mean that the problem is solved in the more recent version
of Live CD, or just that you couldn't try the patch because you couldn't
download the source tree for some reason?  FWIW I built the patched
module and put here:
  http://les.ath.cx/DragonFly/issue531.zip
  (les.ath.cx should resolve to 61.205.61.15)

the driver for UP kernel is named acpi-up.ko, and SMP acpi-smp.ko .
The module is built without -march= option, so it should work on any
x86-ish CPUs.  The only problem is I'm not sure if or how it's possible
to boot with the LiveCD and load the driver from floppy disk or other
stuff...

Cheers.
