I've updated the BIOS to 2.30, so that now my dmesg shows:
[ 20.346577] thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad ACPI Extras v0.25
[ 20.346580] thinkpad_acpi: http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/
[ 20.346582] thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad BIOS 7LETD0WW (2.30 ), EC 7KHT24WW-1.08
[ 20.346583] thinkpad_acpi: Lenovo ThinkPad T61p, model 64577WG
The problem is still reproducible with *no change in behaviour*. So it's
not related to the BIOS.
jcurl@leon-ubuntu:~$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s
