No chance at all. This kernel doesn't even boot on a lot of systems.
I'd recommend trying to figure which ACPI changes you're in need of,
and talking the acpi folks into submitting them for 2.6.13.3
or a later -stable release.

The next FC4 update will be a 2.6.13.x release, (currently at .2)
depending how the current testing goes, and how quick things get
in shape, I'll rebase to later -stable releases as they become
available.
