If you have dbus running (KDE, Gnome and others automatically use it), then you can shut down with something like:
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit" /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.Stop
You can make the above a script and save it in /usr/local/bin/dbus-halt (or whatever.)
