I know this from systems with older processors. For me a
'apm=power-off' in the /etc/grub.conf kernel-line does the trick.

would your "older" include an Athlon XP 2600+ ?
No, of course not. My older processors are pII, pIII and athlon, from
266MHz to 800MHz.

As  an added data point, since the OP seems concerned about Athlon XP2600+,
I am running that processor in an ASUS A7N8X2.0 Deluxe m/b ACPI BIOS Rev 1008 and it powered down just fine following the CentOS 5.2 upgrade. Here's the first stanza of grub.conf:
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.1.el5)
       root (hd0,0)
       kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5 ro root=LABEL=/
       initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.img
