Well then that watch mechanism is broken, at least for values written 
before some point in time:
# xenstore-ls -f /local/domain/10
[...]
/local/domain/10/control/shutdown = "poweroff"
[...]

But the domain doesn't shut down.

Konrad, sorry to keep sending stuff your way, but I'm not sure who else 
to bring in for this one.  The original thread is here:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/xen/devel/282467

But the problem actually has nothing to do with ACPI -- it's the PV 
shutdown command that is getting lost after the driver registers 
HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ but before something else comes up that starts 
watching ../control/shutdown.
