IIRC, we had this problem reported about two or three weeks ago,
and it's still unresolved.

Do you know wether it's a regression, i.e. did it work with 2005-08-R1?

Hmm. Availability of apm is checked during configure, so the worst
effect of enabling "apm" on a machine without apm(4) should be a
display like "Battery: unavailable". But I could forcibly disable
the "apm" option for non-apm platforms regardless of the config
file.
