eck.. I am not > sure if it's NFS bug, I might missed option or it's just normal. Yes, this is a known problem: the tests run by daemontools seem to hang forever due to some problems with locking files over NFS. I guess I should add a WITHOUT_TESTS knob to disable the test run. G

dev/acpica/acpi.c - minor patch for cleaner poweroff

Hi, I think you're the main maintainer of the ACPICA codebase (and yes, I know that parts of it is imported from Intel). Attached is a trivial patch which makes for cleaner testing for RB_POWEROFF in acpi_shutdown_final() - I've had various kernel/userland routines invoke reboot sequences where
