After the patch is applied, Sugar's shutdown and restart options fail if

there are multiple logged in users; via SSH or text console.

Just digged around a bit; while both ConsoleKit and HAL go through PolicyKit for "authentication", the names of the configuration variables differ. Since I've run into the same issue before (i.e. with HAL), I suppose the default is the same but the OLPC builds explicitly configure HAL to allow shutdowns even for multiple sessions?
