GRUB 'halt' command doesn't shutdown APM capable systems

[Derrik Pates]

I have tried this on my desktop at home, and had a friend try it with a
Sony Vaio laptop - this is still the case as of GRUB 0.90. It just hangs,
never shuts down the system at all, even though it's obviously supposed
to. (I've looked at the APM shutdown code and the Linux kernel's APM
shutdown code as well, to compare.
