Perhaps the legacy kernel has apm enabled?

I think Slackware removed apm but you can find online guides about redoing the kernel w/ apm.

OpenBSD i386 has apm by default:

[i386 Only] apm(4) takes precedence over acpi(4)
The device detection on i386 has been modified to make apm(4) take precedence over acpi(4). It means that if your hardware has both apm and acpi devices, only apm will attach. If for some reason you prefer to use acpi, disable apm on your acpi-enabled kernel using config(8) or boot -c.
