I've just finished a lot of work on acpi events (GPEs).  These drive
things like the lid switch and device wake capabilities.  If your system
works for suspend/resume, please make sure it still behaves correctly over
multiple suspend/resume cycles.  If you're feeling adventurous, try the
new wake sysctls:

sysctl dev | grep wake

By setting them to 0 or 1, you can enable/disable a device waking the
system.  Note that non-ACPI devices are still not properly hooked in here
so they won't work (i.e. sio or modems).  But you can change the lid
independently of the sleep button, for example.

Also, please be sure that your system still powers off correctly when
shutdown.  I may have fixed some systems that didn't power off correctly
as well.

Thanks,
-Nate
