I happen to have MacBook 5,1 and it behaves as your one, but mine
versions are 7.2/amd64 and 8.0-BETA<ANYTHING>/amd64.

I see this message both for 7.x and 8.0.

The thing is that the IRQ for SCI at my MacBook is 9, so it may be
really related to the keyboard issues.  May be SCI interrupt is posted
after ACPI is enabled and this confuses something.  I'll try to look
at how APIC stuff is routed, but not today.

By the way, are you able to use notebook's keyboard?  I can use only
external USB one -- internal works as if control is always pressed.
May this has something to do with the IRQ 9 as well.

I will also try to extract acpidump from my book, but external USB
drive/stick isn't reachable due to the EINVAL error.
