With some debugging I found, that cpufreqd crashes within the plugin cpufreqd_acpi.so. The function acpi_battery_update tries to read battery information in sysfs (/sys directory) with libsysfs functions. Because of an invalid pointer cpufreqd crashes here.

I could work around this bug with renaming the cpufreqd_acpi.so plugin. Unfortunately the functions of this plugin are essential. Without this plugin cpufreqd cannot read battery status and other important information.
