I've just updated to this version of thinkpad_acpi, and I must report
that the stupid behaviour when brightness acpi events were delayed after 
going to minimal brightness IS NOW GONE. 

I still get double events after going to minimal brightness though.
Here's what happens:

$ acpi_listen 
video LCD0 00000086 00000000  # several Up events so that I go to max
video LCD0 00000086 00000000
video LCD0 00000086 00000000
video LCD0 00000086 00000000
video LCD0 00000086 00000000
video LCD0 00000087 00000000  # first Down
video LCD0 00000087 00000000
video LCD0 00000087 00000000

video LCD0 00000087 00000000
video LCD0 00000087 00000000  # min brightness, double events

^C

reloading thinkpad_acpi and video modules correct this double event
situatuion.
