As I promised, here are the results of the test. I replaced hdparm with a 
script and logged what happened.
So, here we have the proof that actually the scripts ARE altering the default 
settings.

     |-dd
.....[more pstree cut]
<<< end >>>

All I did was to reenable the acpid and apmd services and reboot... I
also mention that on this system on_ac_power returns 255 and the system
does not interpret correctly this sittuation and activates a laptop
specific on-battery profile(this is another bug) . This is actually a
desktop system.
