Error 53 is returned by the InitiateSystemShutdown function if you don't hold the SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME privilege. What's weird is that this fact should actually have resulted in another error message: shutdown: required privilege not held: ... I have no idea why this occurs, sorry. Rebuilding shutdown for debugging and stepping through might give a clue, perhaps.
