Please let me know if this causes ACPI problems for you.  It shouldn't.
Unfortunately, if there are problems, the symptoms aren't certain so I'll
need an acpidump -t -d > my.asl if you have problems.

  Log:
  Part 2 of Project Evil:  Pretend to be Windows 2000 for buggy ASL that
  always expects to be running on some MS OS.  A survey of ASL shows that
  this is the 2nd most common expected OS value.  (1st is Win98 and we don't
  emulate its buggy ACPI support.)  Our ACPI support is similar to Win2k,
  also.  Put this behavior under ACPICA_PEDANTIC so we can get back to our
  previous behavior for OSV testing.
