Because in last minutes before release of FC1, Bill Nottingham(?)
added a couple of lines to rc.sysinit to load every acpi modules
it can find.  Harmless probably.  But the funniest part is that
'thermal' module depends on 'processor', and the sole reason that
it's working is that 'p'<'t'!

I would send a patch to move loading modules in /etc/init.d/acpi
instead.
