Thanks for the reminder -- I recently updated Bug 39499 because I discovered I could make my system power off properly by adding acpi=force to the kernel parameters. AND it turns out when I do that, the power button behaves as expected, too. (This is using the 686 kernel.)
Under the 386 kernel, the power behaves as expected without adding any kernel parameters.
