Running devd -Dd does not show any events. However I believe I found a 
better hack for this situation.

Here's a portion of  my devd.conf:
notify 10 {
       match "system"   "ACPI";
       match "subsystem"       "Button";
       match "notify"               "0x01";
       notify   "/etc/rc.sus";
}

I hope I got the syntax right since I'm typing from memory. rc.sus is my 
script that calls acpiconf which *does* honor rc.suspend and rc.resume.

rc.sus for now contains

#!/bin/sh
acpiconf -s 1

But I will modify it, unless someone fixes the event situation.

P.S.: Don't forget to set hw.acpi.sleep_button_state to NONE
