Gah! I just wrote a long explanation for why I believe I'm experiencing the same bug, but the browser crashed.
So this is just a condensed version of that.

1) The problem seems to be related to rfkill, which is platform independent.
2) stopping acpi-support and acpid, I still have the same problem (i.e. the hotkey behaves the same as if they were running, which makes me think none of the platform specific scripts from /etc/acpi/* are run).
3) I can't change the values of /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill*/state manually.

Isn't hal responsible for hotkey handling nowadays? If I don't misremember, hal can't handle cycling of bt+wlan, but rather behaves just as explained here, turning bt+wlan either on or off simultaneously.

If you still think I'm having a different bug, let me know, and I'll go away.
