This problem appears to be the root cause of my laptop's failure to hibernate on lid close. The settings appear right, and I can see that /etc/acpi/lid.sh is getting run. Adding debug echos to that script shows that /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state always gives "state: open".
As with Christian's case, I can successfully hibernate from menus, etc. - just not from lid close. This worked fine on Dapper for me, so seems to be some type of regression. dmidecode output attached.
