Test 1:
ac-adapter attached, output redirected to /tmp/acpi.log (tmpfs) so that
the svga-framebuffer console does not slow down things. No lockup,
stopped test at 10000.

Test 2:
Output to console, somewhere between 4000 and 5000 i removed the power
chord. At about 5800 the system locked up! Sysrq-key still worked, as
well as ping from an external host, but nothing else. Alt-SysRq-k (kill
programs on current console) did not help. At least I could sync and
unmount before reboot. :-)

Test 3 (after the reboot, nice to have a journaling filesystem :-) ):
Output to console, system running on battery. This time as in the first
test no lockup, stopped the test at 10000.

So there is something wrong anywhere, but it's a bit difficult to
reproduce.
