What exactly is broken about your DSDT that requires you to 'fix' it? 

Yes, lots of vendor DSDTs won't compile with the Intel compiler - this is 
because the Microsoft compiler is far more 'generous' than Intel's, and will 
allow a lot of spec breaking rubbish in.

However, the ACPI interpreter in Linux can handle most of these just fine; and 
if it can't, then that's a bug that needs to be fixed in Linux (since Linux 
should be able to handle unmodified MS compiled DSDTs out of the box).
