This is a firmware bug for sure and should be marked as such.
ACPI_WARNING((AE_INFO, FW_BUG "32/64X
Can acpica take over and implement these from include/kernel.h if 
compiled standalone:
#define FW_BUG          "[Firmware Bug]: "
#define FW_WARN         "[Firmware Warn]: "
#define FW_INFO         "[Firmware Info]: "
