Glad to see I'm not alone, I'm going to have a good look into this this week/weekend as soon as I get the time (working on updating the bmcsensors patch right now). Last time I looked briefly into it I thought the only way might be to change the sysfs code described in device.h (where it appears the extra parameter described in sysfs.h is removed) due to the kobject hierarchy. I hope I was wrong though and there is some other (far more feasible) way around it. I'm open to suggestions from anyone who has any ideas of course :-).
