I have both compiled into my 2.4.18 kernel.  If I want ACPI, I put
'apm=off' in my lilo.conf; if I want APM, I don't and, since APM is
activated first, ACPI just doesn't initiate.  Is it not good to set
things up that way?  It seems to work - ACPI is up at the moment, as this 
excerpt from dmesg says:

apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x02 (Driver version 1.16)
apm: disabled on user request.
...
ACPI: Core Subsystem version [20011018]
ACPI: Subsystem enabled
Power Resource: found
ACPI: System firmware supports S0 S1 S3 S4 S5
Processor[0]: C0 C1 C2 C3, 8 throttling states
ACPI: Battery socket found, battery present
ACPI: AC Adapter found
ACPI: Power Button (FF) found
ACPI: Lid Switch (CM) found
ACPI: Thermal Zone found
