And the way the system is wired up causes the GPE status to be set
when it is enabled, I suppose?

So effectively, you need to disable the active-state IRQ, then clear
the GPE status and enable it for wakeup.

OK, I'll queue up the patch (and talk to the upstream ACPICA people
about taking it in there).

Thanks!
