The cpufreq documentation states that the /proc/sys/cpu interface is
obsolete. AFAIK it is only used if you apply the cpufreq patch to a
vanilla 2.4 kernel. Note that with a 2.6 kernel, the /proc/cpufreq is
also somewhat obsoleted by the sysfs interface.

Maybe it just tries to use the wrong interface.
