Darwin's patch solves the immediate shutdown issue on my system (8.10 w/ KDE 4.2). Its still not 100% because /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh trumps my powerdevil settings.
Currently /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh looks to see if gnome-power-manager, kpowersave or klaptopdaemon are running to let those programs handle this policy. I would suggest that the powerdevil daemon be added to this list in preparation for 9.04 and KDE 4.2 where powerdevil will be the default power manager.
