Neither stop/start performed as you described, or reboot solves the problem.
My way of loading bq27x00_battery is via /etc/modules - so, it is loaded very early during boot process. Rationale - this way, it loads before bme, and open path for i2c access for it - so, BME don't complain about something occupying i2c, doesn't generate possible (and dangerous) i2c conflicts, and overall doesn't "know" about neighbor using i2c. (Just for the record - using this method, it's still impossible to turn off and on BME during runtime - for example, via HEN - without modprobe -r bq27x00_battery).
Thinking about that, this is obvious "candidate" for "why APM doesn't see it". Still, it would be great to have option to use it that way, for mentioned reasons.
Thanks for looking into it!

In case You're wondering, after latest update, bq(...)00 still isn't available, despite being listed in HAL.
