FreeBSD will fail while ACPI will have Active-High and Level-triggered, except if you define, as Aurélien said, an "Extended Interrupt Descriptor" in ACPI table. BTW, I'm not able to boot Debian Sarge (2.6.8-11-amd64-generic) with your patch (as before). Moreover, I don't understand what this patch resolves...
