Exactly what Bryce said.

Turning off services can be a bit fraught and the powernowd service has two different scripts which can cause it to be run. Unfortunately powernowd doesn't seem to support a setting in /etc/default/powernowd to allow users to cleanly disable it in a similar manner to other initscripts hence the need to edit the script directly.

Bryce:
You are bang on the money. This looks like Bug #109643 (or rather that bug looks like this one since this was filed first).
