Hmm, I didn't actually follow up in detail, it just printed some loud error message at me and didn't seem to be setting the governor, so I assumed that it must be using set -e or something. Though on further investigation, it looks like the error message may have just come from modprobe: ~$ sudo modprobe cpufreq_asdfsadf FATAL: Module cpufreq_asdfsadf not found. and perhaps I just didn't check closely enough whether it was actually working -- FATAL tends to be a discouraging thing to get from an /etc/init.d script :-).
