Details
the thinkpad package from the Extra repo is ancient. The
module is compiled for 2.6.12, and the PKGCONF even lacks an
"arch=(i686)" line. The PKGCONF apparently has not been
touched in 20 months, the other files are two years old
already.

I'm getting there. I have this mostly scripted now to react to CVS commits.
"This module provides battery information for models produced since 2001 and possibly earlier, and additional features for models produced since 2003"
- maybe it's worth to move it to Extra, and move those oldies to AUR.
2) tpctl and thinkpad packages "worked on older ThinkPad models but are now obsolete: the drivers no longer build (with the latest Linux versions)". so I don't know if the latest version 4.17 and 6.0 will build.
pacman -S thinkpad
And finally can't work because their kernel is more newer now.
