Additionally, I switched to the console before pressing the power
button.  This caused the following message to appear in the syslog:

,----

`----

Shutting down still works under X, though.  I'm not sure that it is a
very good idea that pwf_error() exits when anything unexpected happens,
canceling the shutdown.
