It's my understanding that poweroff is a backwards-compatibility 
implementation of systemctl poweroff, which I have tried to no avail. I 
should have mentioned that. It appears that halt is the same. shutdown 
if a link to systemctl. Bottom line is that I would not expect any of 
these to be any different, but I live in hope and will report back if 
there's any difference.

I should also mention that systemctl poweroff works fine on my laptop 
running the 32-bit version of Fedora 16.

One point, FWIW. Power off is essential for my application. Merely 
halt-ing is no better than just leaving the system running. 

Thanks. I don't wish to seem ungrateful -:)
