I'd second that.  I'm seeing it with Sun JDS.  Easy reproduce-by: enable
the gnome battery applet, leave system on overnight.  Results in a
locked system the next day.  Disable battery applet, no locked system. 
I'm sure it's a corner-case hiding in the driver - just haven't had the
time to go after it and thought that it might have been quashed in
modern versions of the ACPI support.
