Send a dmesg and acpidump (tar+gz it) to me (mlarkin@). I think
it's likely the same problem we've seen on other acpitz-enabled
machines. It might be related to acpiec or some other race. 

Some have said that unplugging and plugging in the power during
boot (during autoconf) avoids it. Others haven't been so lucky.

With the dmesg and acpidump I can at least see if it's the same
machines that have had the same problem in the past.

PS - disabling acpitz will result in overheating in certain cases.
