i am experiencing this also on desktop machine. If i disable apm then
it shuts down just fine, otherwise it used to (I havent tried this in
a while) cause a disk check on next boot. I should try this again.

It's quite annoying to have to remember to config(8) the kernel after
each snapshot upgrade, as I always forget. I would be nice to add an
option to config(8) your kernel at install/upgrade, but I guess there
is no more space on the media for that.
