Public bug reported: This is pretty much the same thing as #488319 (which happened with a Dell 760) or #115011 (with a Dell 745). Basically, every time Dell comes out with a new workstation, rebooting simply doesn't work when ACPI is enabled.
The symptom is that it will sit at "[ 1234.56789 ] Restarting system" forever until power-cycled.
