I have, I did, and I do.  The problems are way beyond that.  E.g., 
'acpiconf -s 1' fails with an invalid argument error, despite being a 
valid state (according to sysctl).  Suspend to S3 /appears/ to work 
(machine goes to sleep, power LED goes into slow fade up/down mode), but 
when you try to come out of S3 the machine resets and goes straight into 
the BIOS boot.

This is with 6.1-RELEASE.
